[QUOTE="Cowboyshooter, post: 1344064, member: 83113"] Tend to agree with the overall tone here, most of the "shows" are pretty poor at best! The part that has really put me off over the years, is the lack of anything approaching real skills!! While I have done stand hunting, have hunted while hiking and most combination of the two, what strikes me often is just how poor many if not most of these are when it comes to closing the gap between hunter and prey! No stalking ability at all!!! I have also been amazed at shots passed on because of distance. I am not talking hundreds of yards, too often it appears to be within 300, which I consider a fairly easy shot to make, most often. As several have commented, too often the shows have had less to do with real hunting skills and more to do with selling stuff or talking up someone's ability, when in fact they just documented the opposite! :( [/QUOTE]
