Anyone here actually watch Meateater? He actually seems to be fairly specific on his location in many of his hunts.
Naming which section of forest in Arizona he hunted Coues Deer (and saying you can easily get a tag there every year)
Think the people in Arizona feel the same way? Wonder if after that it’s still that easy to get a tag every year
Or how about when he and Callaghan take Hellen and Brittany Elk hunting in Montana I cant remember the name but it showed “____ hills”  and it (like most episodes” highlighted the forest/hills on a map of Montana.

Those are just 2 quick examples.

He’s putting hunting under a good light and along the way sharing some spots he likes (in a way)
I think he’s been a tad too specific on occasion but how about let’s all celebrate the good things he’s done for hunting and the outdoors and less about a hunt most of us would likely have never drawn anyways  :twocents:

I think he should NOT promote specific areas.

Ever.

Period.

If you disagree I could care less.

I personally think everyone should start training for the Blue Mountains as if they are getting drawn this year.  It's good for the heart.  :tup:

I just watched the episode and it actually discouraged me from applying.  To much walking and to far from roads

I had a spring bear hunt in Wenaha this year and that place is no joke!

With the over saturation of commercialized hunting shows, Steve puts out a good TV product that focuses on the full hunting experience. I also appreciate how he glorifies ethics and captures the terrain he hunts.

I’m not bothered by him taking the world along with him, even if that means showing hunts in a coveted area of Washington. It’s a limited entry unit, with poor general season success, good luck pulling the tag.

As I’ve said before. They’re great ambassadors but I also agree with “loose lips”.

Karma?
The meateater crew has lost 3 or 4 bulls this year.
It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.

Pretty pathetic in my opinion.

They damn near lost the Blues bull too.
If I remember right a hunt WA member found it.

Pressure of being "an ambassador" leads to crappy shot choices.

3 or 4 should be the max for one whole unit of hunters not one crew of professional meat eaters.

You go further than I would in condemning Rinella for his poor shot,  he could have edited all that out and not shown you his bad shot, not shown you the HW member who actually found the bull, then went out of his way to track down rinella to show him where his bull was, rinella could have shown you a picture perfect hunt on TV   

I give him a lot of credit for showing the good, the bad and the ugly.

Just out of curiosity I wonder if the huntwa member just stumbled on the bull. Or did he watch the hunt go down and took the initiative to find it?

The bull was on an open hillside in plain view from a mile off,  the HW member spotted the bull from across the way just laying there,  walked over to investigate, then tracked down the big camera crew everyone knew was filming a hunt   :chuckle:

I wonder if a clean kill or a poor shot is interpreted better or worse by the anti hunters this man supposedly helps us out with???
