I agree they need to get away from horn porn and get back to the basics I don't even let my son watch any of the hunting channels I think it instills something different from what I was taught hunting is

00buck I agree. I was taught hunting was much more respectful than what happens. Plus the post shot celebrations are pretty ridiculous as well.

I pretty much stopped watching these shows for the past 8 yrs or so, all too much about selling products, and hunting in prime places few folks can afford
very little hunting skills being shown, or outdoormanship skills, its just more shooting skills, and they edit way too much of the real world blunders and misses, and they seem to lie at will, about every buck they seem to kill being a MATURE one, even one's that don't look very aged to me at all, or score well
or is it just they cannot just admit they killed a small buck just to get a kill on camera?
hunting isn't what it once was, I won't blame it all on TV show's
but they sure don't help to keep hunters hunters
now its all or seems to me to be about size of racks, and only hunting Prime dates, and private manicured deer hot spots
most that come with big price tags to hunt at!
hunting now a days seems to be less about the challange and the meat you can have
and all about proving you can kill "X" sized bucks, using the best and lastest equipment!
like folks are trying to out do each other, and that was never why I hunted
I did it cause I enjoyed the outdoors, the personal challange of seeing myself get better at it
kills and bigger bucks came as ways to challange myself more, not bragging rights
Oh well, My 2 cents I guess
