[QUOTE="blackco, post: 164536, member: 7356"] Just playing devil's advocate...and I know if they completly missed the animal they could have easily gut shot the animal...you don't necessarily need to be a good shot to be a good hunter. Teddy Rosevelt was well known to have poor eyesight and be a lousy shot, BUT he was a good hunter. He got close enough to the animal to KNOW that he would hit his target. I think another cosideration is that the shows get some flak because no one EVER misses on TV. On the other side of the coin...if sport personalities are supposed to be role models and "do it right" I think the folks on shooting shows should also. I am positive in my own mind that there are people out there saying, "this is exactly how Bubba Smith on Trophy Busters of the Universe did it." And the results are cripples and lost animals.
