I will admit up-front that I do not watch out-door shows. I only " hear" about them from folks either on this board, or who stay at my establishment. But the story line seems the same.
Inside of a thirty minute time slot, there are two or more huge racked deer killed, or several very large bass caught, with plenty of promotional commercials thrown in for good measure.
One of my occupations is instructing folks on the finer arts of outdoor navigation, and as important as that is, I have never heard of an outdoor show explaining exactly HOW to use a map and compass, or a map and compass with a GPS.
I would suspect that a great number of people would like to know how to read a grid coordinate or understand how to read topography.

My biggest thing would be fair chase hunting, no lodges, no guides, NO HIGH FENCES, just hunting the way the majority of us do it. Also some good tips on the animal your hunting in that show. Also some management tips are always a plus with me. Variety is good to include all walks of life, but whitetails always make a good show, cant get too much deer, but dont forget everyone else. It is also neat to see life around camp or getting ready before the hunt in the morning.
