No Don, I do not respect those who are supposed tobe the spokesmen for our sport who sell outfor a couple extra bucks. I would like to think that they got into the industry because of their love for hunting and not for love of money. Naive, sure, but that doesn'tmake it wrong. If theywere sellingme a car I would expect them to talk me into a bunch of crap I don't need, but I don't want them tobe selling me anything except entertainment. To me, it would seem that if your show were the most entertaining, the sponsors would fall into place. Honestly, my favoritehunting show currently is Easton Bowhunting b/c Fred Eichler is an absolute bowhunting nut! His enthusiasm is over the top and even annoying sometimes, but it beats the guys who seemlike they don't even care and are just happy to sound like a NASCAR driver when they kill something "Well he came in and the HArdees, IBM, Hoyt Vetrix just handled perfectlyand we were able to put this one on the ground." Makes me change the channel.

Nothing like finding a sponsor the old fashioned way, huh? Just marry your money!
