Wellllllllll...... I'll bite. I like the show, like he's says, you don't have to hunt the way he does. BUT I shoot a hand made long bow, and you just try to shoot a hand thrown (or duck) target at 25 yards out of the air! I've done it once and thought I owned the world! I also don't shoot it all the time and would never take it hunting unless I shot it a heck of a lot more.
I've never taken a record book buck, but have a bunch under my belt that have been taken with pistols mostly but also with rifle, shotgun and bow. I also hunt mostly state land and a bit of private land, and don't get to have my can shipped all over gods creation to hunt managed property. I have slipped, tripped, dropped a gun and even got a bit turned around in the woods a couple of times. I've always made it back, usually have a sucsessful hunt and always have a great time with family, friends, or even alone. I can relate to what he gets out of hunting.
I don't like all these shows that have some guy taking a "trophy" every time he goes on a hunting trip. It just ain't that way for the most of us. Not saying I would turn down having a job like that or even do it as a show.
I'm a member of MUCC here in Michigan and we have our own show, Michigan-out-of-Doors, it shows how regular folks hunt and fish.
Would I stick a Boar with a big ole knife....... Heck ya!
Give Tred a bit of credit, he has a great time where ever he's at. Hunts with a longbow for everything, tries hard, promotes ethical hunting, can make fun of himself when he slips and falls. Ya, he has his opinions.... but so do we.
We, as sportsmen and women need to stick up for our fellow outdoorsmen. If we don't, the anti's are right there to exploit that downfall. Michigan lost its fledgling dove season for that very reason.
