What is wrong with the "pro's" on TV now a days

[runamuk]

This is super cool and many of you may not know this...if you never turn them on and do not watch them they all go away.  I mean who knew  it is that simple to make bad tv not exist.


Wait i think Iceman has been trying to tell ya all that for years

Better yet, I have basic cable!  Couldn't watch these shows if I wanted to.  My cable bill in under $14 a month and I think the Roku box is another $8!  I can watch the news and all the Magnum P.I., Chuck and Eureka re-runs I want for less than $25 a month 

I have a few friends who ask me for money every month.  They are usually the same guys that text me 20 times an hour from their I-Phones during Monday night football.

And don't forget we have a president in the Whitehouse that isn't qualified to manage a McDonalds.    If you look good, talk good, or raise enough money...sometimes that's enough!

Bet he'd love to be in Ferguson ransacking a liquor store with Al Pinhead!

A spike...maybe.

There are several rich folks on television that are very average hunters in my opinion. One such show is The Chase with Leigh and Travis. Leigh had really never hunted before and her husban appears to be very wealthy and can afford the guided hunts and to pay cameramen.

Pretty much any bowhunter with some basic skill and knowledge couple with money could be in instant Pro Hunter. There really is not a whole lot more to it.

I have a couple of friends that are Professional hunters and they are not any better than a lot of other guys, they simply get more opportunity.

I'm sick of all the"yea baby, that's what I'm talkin' about. And most of these "pro's" have their own little gimmicks they have to do after they shoot something. Like can't catch their breath, or "give me a minute", or they shake or just scream and yell like banshee's . GIVE ME A BREAK!!!

3 things wrong.
1) Most African hunts show their hunters carrying their guns over their shoulders loaded and pointed at everyone in front of them.  Just watched one yesterday. The arrogant hunter worked the bolt on his gun, chambering a round, then threw it over his shoulder, pointing it at his PH on an Asiatic buffalo hunt.
2) They are indirectly or unknowingly driving up the cost of hunting for all of us.
3)Too many of them are simply entertaining themselves and using us to pay for it. They laugh at themselves and their own jokes even when it's not funny.

These things drive me nuts but I also hate it when they re-show the same footage twice or more just to drag out the show.
I also like it when they say, "Yeah, we've put in a lot of miles today..........." and they've been glassing from a PU truck all day.
I'm envious. I wish I could afford hunts like that.

I guarantee that those Realtree folk couldn't pull it off.  There is no way Lee and Tiffany could.  Hell. I doubt that Tiff has ever killed a buck that was not either in a food plot, bait station, on farm or in front of  half dozen guides.

Even the so called "local" shows.  I feel that Titan is legit though and that's about it..

I don't have TV but every now and then I am at a friends house and get to catch some shows.  Solo Hunter is pretty awesome, Remi Warren is a BOSS!  Jim Shockey makes the best t.v. out there and has been on the most brutal hunts on planet earth.  Randy Newberg is a genuinely outstanding human and a dang hard hunter.  He puts in the time and effort and does it just like any of us would.  Ryan Hatfield and Nate Simmons on Western Hunter lay down some great animals and some amazing footage.    Lee and Tiffany may not fair well in the blacktail woods but the time and effort they put into their whitetail hunting trumps the effort that probably 98% of us put into our species of choice.  Comparing Midwest whitetails to hunting out west where we have literally millions of acres at our disposal is an unfair comparison.  There is definitely some tools out there though!

I don't watch any hunting on television anymore.

YouTube is where its at.
