You wouldnt have ahunt to watchif it wasnt for the promos and props. Simple as that. #2 the companies dont rely on them for buisiness the show relys on the company for money intern the buisiness relys on the viewers. Its a cycle that can't be broke. WCL

#2 Did your products really help you or are the companies relying on you for buisness? Im going to guess the later.
Just show me the hunt. I dont care about your promos and Props!!

Wing chaser is 100% correct if you like watching these shows you have to realize almost every aspect of it is a comercial for some type of product out there. If they didn't spend the money to advertise there prodcts on the show you wouldn't have a show to watch.
Besides you and I both know if scent blocker came to you and offered you a job hunting for a living and all you had to do was wear there clothes they gave you for free and mention there name a few times you would do it too

Exactly, if there is a hunting video made, it costs someone money. Since usually one person cannot finance this on his own, they get a sponsor. I see nothing wrong with this, who cares if you gotta listen to them pitch a product for a couple seconds, go take a leak or get a cup of jo in the mean timeif you dont like it!

Its all sad but the truth of the matter is everyone always looks at the negatives of things.I'm sure all of us have done at least a couple of the things mentioned throughout and other stupider things that aren't mentioned. Yeah those things should be edited out but in reality it really doesnt matter cuz everyone, no matter who you are is going to get excitedat some point in time and even justshooting at the rangeand take actions that are really not safe but go unlooked or ever noticed. I'm sure we've all done alot of dangerous things in our day with out us or anyone else even noticing we did it......... Now how about all the good thigns hunting shows have done for safety and preserving hunting by promoting safety harnessess, not loading the gun till ready to hunt or shoot, make non hunters aware of how important huntign is and give them a chance to see it (even though its not always sowing the truth), educate kids on hunting and safety skills, QDM practicing and other deer management practices, ect....... After its all said and done i think hunting shows do more good than bad for the sport and no matter how much editting can be done people are stupid and are going to do stupid things no matter if they see it on TV or not. People are stupid and get caught up in the moment and I don't think anyone can say they have never done a dangerous thing or never will do a dangerous thign again while hunting. WCL
