[QUOTE="PickettSFHunter, post: 5268812, member: 2171"] The unfortunate reality in this time is that most people will take advice from a YouTuber that hasn’t hunted very long or even accomplished very much before they will listen to a much more accomplished Hunter that isn’t a YouTuber, IMO. You see that commonly, people just idolize YouTubers. Don’t take that as me saying not to write the book or write down your thoughts in some format. I think anyone with those kind of aspirations should absolutely do it. Just don’t expect the under 30 or 40 crowd to flock to it, the majority of that crowd wants their YouTubers. What I see most out of those that idolize the YouTubers is that they don’t actually hunt very seriously, preferring to vicariously live through their idols, and just talk about how they would like to hunt without actually doing it. Lots of people that I grew up with are that way. They idolize THP, buy all the gear, talk big about their adventures they want to go on, then hunt like a few days a season and whine about how they didn’t do any good 😂 This is just my opinion.
