I just got home and flipped on the boob tube......channel 395 "Sportsmans Channel" on DISH: Full Draw Outfitters is on.  First thing I see is a guy drawing his bow back as a big buck is walking across a field.  The buck is walking and I'm grunting to myself, hoping to stop the buck for the guy 'cause he isn't!  Finally the guy pulls the trigger while the buck is WALKING.  I don't know the distance but it wasn's straight down, maybe 30 plus yards??

Lower gut shot is what we got now.

But WAIT, the buck runs out of site and the shooter looks quick at the camera man and says "HE"S DOWN, RIGHT THERE!!".  The camera man says yup, he's down!

They go to a commercial and then come back with the hero shot of the buck on a creek bank looking deader than heck.  The shooter thanks everybody connected to the deal and that's a wrap.

I'm soooo sick of these bullshiit shows, they make me wanna puke.  There is no freaking way that buck died that quick..........liars.

Those hunting shows PAY to be on tv ,that's why they're nothing more then a long commercial. I can't remember the last time I saw a deer hit when the arrow passed through . I like how the camera man is already at the dead deer filming the hunters reaction to first seeing the deer .

Seen the same show.  I was thinking who else is watching this BS. 

 

Now, maybe... And I mean maybe.   The buck bedded. Had that happen to me where I gut shot a buck, watched him bed down 100 yrds away, and found him the next morning.  

 

But, I agree.  Bunch of BS.  I would have more respect if he admitted he made a bad shot, and should have stopped him before shooting. He should have admitted his mistakes, and educated the  novice viewers (and reenforced those of us that recognized the mistakes) and been forthcoming.

I quit watching the Outdoor channel several years ago just for the same reasons the OP brought up. Way too many outrageous paid hunts, outlandish shots and of course the camera blatantly showing product IDs of apparel, equipment, etc. Definitely not the type of hunting us mere mortals in NYS encounter.

LIke Lawdwaz mentioned, just TOO painful and frustrating to watch with any sense of realism.

I had a dvr so I would slow them down and watch the arrow slow mo. I think more than 60% are bad shots they are crazy I will watch them if I have nothing else to do. I used to love tred barta guy was crazy and they actually showed him missing!

Hahaha...let's teach people to sling arrows long distances at moving deer and will get a TV deal. Stupid 

Ted Nugent was/is one of the worst "slob hunters" I've ever seen. I remember him doing that kind of crap way back in the 1980s on his videos.

Don't you all know? You're not supposed to stop the deer anymore. I just watched a show yesterday and the guy said you can't make any noise to stop the deer, because they become used to hearing it and it won't work anymore. Seriously the guy said this! He said to stop them you have to hang some scent right were you want them to stop.

I hunted with an outfitter who was on a show. He said he would never do it again. The day after the hunter killed the buck, they had to go out and shoot scenes of stalking the buck that was killed the day prior. After editing and what not, the outfitter told me the episode was pieces together nothing like the actual hunt. Therefore, he would never do another show

Might work if he's on a trail, pretty tuff in a field. But most of my deer didn't read the script and don't use the trail I'm expecting them to.

I stop them but I will say that more than once I've made the MURRRP sound to do it and had a deer turn inside out and bug out of there. I wondered if they've heard that sound before and had an arrow whistle by lol

Last year I did it and the buck jumped about a foot straight up in the air and landed and just stood there looking my way. I started laughing and he took off. The next week he stopped on his own and and I put an arrow in his lungs. I don't know if I did it to loud or what, but it made me laugh like crazy.

Having done a hunting show I can tell you it is only about business at the end of the day. It takes a lot of viewers and sponsorship to finance a hunting show. It takes hundreds, even thousands, of hours of filming just to get enough material to do a seasons worth of episodes. Some are willing to do WHATEVER it takes to attain all those things... I can tell you first hand that 99% of these shows are staged BS... that doesn't mean they are not entertaining sometimes... but lots of smoke and mirrors to develop something that both gets viewers and appeases advertisers. I didn't care for the type of prostitution needed to maintain a hunting show, hence, the reason I don't have one today. You'll learn more watching amateur self filmed YouTube videos.
