Yeah, so I'm watching Wild Game Nat'n (forgive me, it was the only turkey hunting show on at the time). Matt the moron is on. He talks about how he'll shoot every hog he sees. He'll throw lead, arrows, bullets...Doesn't matter. Next thing you see is him shooting a couple of feet low and skipping and arrow into a hog's ham. He's all happy. Better lucky than good he says. I'm mad! Don't ask why...I know he does stuff like this all the time...
Next he's rigging a turkey fan to his bow. Senior moron gives the thumbs up. Great idea!
Well, next scene moron Jr. is trying to call some gobblers in. He does...Takes a shot and guess what? Yeah, he shoots a foot low and skips an arrow in the poor gobbler's a$$. Of course he runs away wounded. They run him down and the scene cuts to the back slapping. Moron Jr. carries on and makes a fool of himself...
THEN, the prostitution to the equipment companies. One of those included, "That's why we use Rage broadheads...When you shoot poorly, like I always do..."
WHAT???!!! I could have come out of my chair! Can you imagine what a viewer who is ambivalent regarding hunting would think? Can you imagine what ammo that is for an anti? I mean it peed me off and I'm all for hunting!
Man I'd like to shake those a-holes!
I would have never seen it, I quit watching them almost as soon as I started... The "Busbice's" are not doing us hunters out here any good, IMO just a bad "Show" and can't see why their sponsors pay them for what they do...
MK M GOBL
I'm with ya' brutha'! I get weak sometimes since turkey programing can be scarce this time of year.
And yes, you're right, you wonder why sponsors don't pull away from them. We all know it's about the money but you'd think they'd have a more long view on what that type of thing does to public opinion...
Those guys rule

Agree, some shows are better than others. Some do a better job of promoting safety while hunting. Some go to the xtremes in taking game. I think the majority are bad for hunting because by and large they don't portray what most of us are all about. That being said there are some good shows out there as long as you keep it in perspective. A lot of these shows do a good job of promoting our 2 Amendment and protecting our environment. A lot of these shows promote Wounded Warrior Hunts, Helping men, women and children with disabilities these are just a few. Take Cuz from Mossy Oak, he is always helping Vet's and taking Vet's hunting. Without some of these shows people like these may never get to have a hunt of a lifetime. So while most shows are bad, lets not forget the good they do also...
Those nuts are an embarrassment to all hunting. I can't stand 'em, the channel is changed instantly if those guys come up!
TV game farm hunters have done more to harm hunting than anything any anti group ever has. All the younger crowd thinks if you don't shoot a monster you're not a real hunter. They have taken away all the tradition that us older crowd grew up learning from our elders. Where I'm from back in the day the #1 priority was the freezer and learning true woodsmanship. I was in the hunting/fishing business for 20+ years and have met a few really good celebrity hunters but I'm telling you, they are rare. I had a conversation with a very popular (in his day) TV hunter at a show one time. I propositioned him to hunt where I do and film a P&Y kill and then let me hunt where he does and we'll do the same. Needless to say he declined the offer. They're all about the product they promote to feed their ego and bank account. Now, with all that being said.....the types venues Greg mentioned that are truly about helping those with disabilities always get my attention. A BIG thumbs up for them.
Cable TV hunting shows have done more to destroy hunting culture and ethics than anything
Why oh why doesn't someone just produce a show with qualified hunters that doesn't come off as watching a hsn, Billy Mays infomercial
I saw that crap come on tv the other day and I as always instantly change it when they come on. I can't stand those guys. I will watch any type of turkey hunting show over and over again through the off season that I recorded but can't stand the site of those guys. I like some of the other comments think there are still some good shows out there that teach value, ethics and sportsmanship. I've been hunting all my life and I still pick up info or tips on some shows. Where I deer and turkey hunt we have some strict rules about harvest criteria on bucks and does and some of the tid bits I've picked up on those shows helps me better judge a deer sometimes and helps me to ultimately pass younger, less mature or smaller deer for harvesting deer at their peak and prime. To me hunting is about one, respecting the game you hunt and realizing it's one of Gods creations and enjoying being closely tied to them in a sense and two about understanding the habits, lifestyles and true potential of each animal and basing a hunt off of enjoying the chase. A lot of these clowns on tv now days just want to kill something on film bowers it takes and I'm not about that. I still think Primos and Drury are the best shows out there after all the years.
I'm glad this topic came up bc I knew there had to be a large number of hunters who thought those guys are jokes too
I agree!!! The Wildgame crew is a total disgrace to our sport and represents everything most ethical sportsman never want to become. It is hard to believe that sponsors support the garbage they put on TV. I intentionally avoid supporting their sponsors !!! Hopefully others will start doing the same and the sponsors take them off of the air.
The only thing worse than Wild Game Nation is that hideous sounding guy with the scratchy voice saying it Wiyald Gaammmme Naashuuuunn!
The Busbys are a disgrace to the state of La and real hunting. Sadly most of the La hunters I come across look up to idiots like them.I'm glad the duck commander phase is finally dying out but there will always be more to take there place.
I do not watch any type of outdoor entertainment on cable TV.. most of it is as bad reality TV garbage
A few shows I will watch online this keeps commercial junk to a minimum as well

Absoltulety correct!
The whole family is a bunch of sleeze bags. I am down here close to where they live and know them all. They are some of the most arrogant clowns that you will ever meet.
:TrainWreck1:
I can't stand watching them! They are jokers.
I was watching Turkey Man and Matt the clown was on there talking about a turkey "hunt" in new jersey. He apparently got a call from a friend who is a cop and said you've got to come shoot this gobbler in this mans backyard. So matt gets there and knocks on the door to ask if he can shoot it and the man says yes so they go through the house to the back porch and conveniently, there's already a blind and a camera man there on the porch. so matt climbs in this blind with the gobbler already strutting in the yard with hens. Nice easy 20 yard shot on a strutting bird, and the freakin idiot shoots him in the leg. the bird runs off and they have to put another arrow in him but as they are all high fiving and celebrating, matt goes on to say the turkey had been attacking neighborhood children. The whole episode made me want to puke. I don't know how these guys have sponsors and a show. i would think sponsors wouldn't want their names pinned to people like this. It's sure a disgrace and an embarrassment for sure.
I haven't watched one of their shows for a good while, but I would bet their "sponsors" are some of the following:
Avian - X
Ameristep
Barnett Crossbows
Bloodsport
Evolved
Flextone
Halo Optics
Plano Hunting
No Limit Archery
Tenzing
Wildgame Innovations
Zink Calls
They are all owned by Plano Synergy. Explains a lot.
http://www.planosynergy.com/
http://www.wideopenspaces.com/hunting-fishing-merger-plano-synergy-outdoors/
Between them and Michael Waddell I'm at a loss of words.
Oh my! Where's all the yeah but it's legal crowd?
For the record I've watched about 30 seconds total of this crew. It took me about 15 seconds to realize that it wasn't for me, and another 15 seconds to pick up the remote and change the channel. I agree, I don't understand why sponsors want their products associated with crap like this. But I don't see any difference between turning off their show and voicing an opinion on them because you don't like what their doing, and others turning off shows and videos because they don't like certain tactics or equipment being used even though it's legal. I've been reminded more than once if it's legal it has to be ok, right?

Watched as much of that episode as I could stomach. Fools.
Just for all the angst about the future of hunting, my son is 27. One nephew is 28, the other 31. They neither think nor act like any of these idjits. They are hard core hunters that have excellent ethics and are not skeered to call out those that don't (not in a save the world antagonistic way, they just won't hunt with that type of person). I would be willing to bet that the majority of folks on here have family, friends and others they know that are nothing like this. Why? Because they taught them better. You can't save the world, but you can dang sure affect your corner of it and I know the folks on here do.
Just change the channel, your BP will be better and remember to take a kid hunting.

They did, it's call Meat Eater. Great program that is very well made, only hunting show I watch other than Jim Shockeys Uncharted. The Busbice's on the other hand are a bunch of Dumb@$$'s IMO. The dad needs to layoff the Just For Men, it kills me to look at him. You've aged, your hair is gray, accept it!
Never heard of the show or seen it. Sounds dumb...y'all should watch YouTube videos. Tons of average guys like us posting their real world hunting. Some of its kind of crappy and some of it is top notch. But it's all real hunting.

Agreed. I like Meat Eater and Jim Shockey's shows. I like the Primos shows, too.
Unfortunately they're probably not going anywhere. They own most of the companies they rep and a 55,000 acre tract of land in Louisiana. You read that right, 55,000 acres in one block!
55,000 acres? If I could only afford that small of a tract, I would not hunt it. :z-guntootsmiley: :goofball: :TooFunny:

Very few do brutha'...Steve Rinella (Meateater) and Randy Newman (Fresh Tracks) come to mind. Those guys are the real deal. Cuz Strickland, the same. Most of the rest seem to be just a bunch of jokers trying to do the next outrageous thing. Should make us all ashamed to be associated with any of them. I know, before I get blowback about the association, everyone who sees these shows judges us along with them...
They're a bunch of idiots and aren't doing hunting or hunting shows any good.
I like Eddie Salter. Reminds me of my uncle.
I like Alex Rutledge. He seems like a decent dude.
All of the "SMOKED HIM!" guys irritate me.
Omfg! And bone collector? I mean how does t-bone even get in the stand? And once he does, how does it not collapse under the weight of his balloon lookin a**. Then luke bryan comes flamboyantly prancing into the scene and is like "omg!! Lets go swack us a dag burn monster buck!! Home slices!" then boom! Buck waltz in to the 50 pounds of magic acorn cotton candy bull crap they got out. Then lukes like "omg girlfriends!!! Theres he is!!! That's picket fence jr!!" (draws his $1,000 bow) "did i hit him???" "did i hit him!?" (que the celebratory girlish screams) then he gos to make another god awful "country song". Don't even get me started on pigman. Im sorry, what was this thread about again?
I do not understand what the problem is.....
We have been constantly told for several weeks:
A) If it's legal it's ok.
B) We must support these shows anyway because it could introduce someone to hunting and they support the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution.
Just stating the facts, don't see why these guys fall into a different category ?
I seen idiot jr shoot a turkey with a crossbow equipt with a freakin bow fishing reel. Said he was going to shoot it and reel it in like a kite. Thought, boy that gives a good message to young hunters who actually watch that crap.
Eddie Salter is no better than a con man. Promoting calls that are absolutely useless, he is just committing legal fraud.
I am fully against them and any product they have their hands in. How many of you that dont like the busbices still support a company they have hands in? Look up the companies plano-synergy owns.

. I watch those Primos guys, and they look like good hunters, but those hunting shows are set up for an easy hunt.Private land that nobody hunts, scouted to the max I'm sure. I don't think those guys work hard at all. It's all a set up.
Kentucky Afield is a good show. It's produced by fish and wildlife life here. You can catch episodes on YouTube.
I just wish one of them was on this site to read how most folks perceive their show.

Regardless, every hunter is looking for that private spot or private land that is not hunted much. Everyone wants to be successful in taking whatever game your hunting, it's opinions that's gets in the way of people wanting to tell others how they should hunt. It's up to each individual person to decide what's a good show and a bad show...i Agree most of these show are way of bounds in what they are projecting in today's hunting world. I do support these shows that promote good for our Vet's and disable people. Also the safety in handling guns and protecting our environment. We all should support our 2 Amendment and not wait on some show to do it for us...Support the NRA...

What calls does Eddie Salter promote that are not functional? I honestly don't pay any attention to that as I speed through the commercials. I mean, if you buy a $6 call, you probably got your $6 worth! I don't watch any of those shows for the ads. he just looks like he would be fun to hunt with. You could be right, I have no idea.
I use a Raspy Old Hen mouth call, a Triple Glass call I picked up years ago and a handmade slate a client gave me, so I am far from a call expert.
I have moved on. I have better things to do with my time, like actually hunting something tasty to eat!

So Eddie promoted the H.S. Strut Squealing Hen Call... Now I can't say this was not a push for selling a "New" product that was all the rage to just make turkeys coming running. One deal I heard with this is that they used some old footage of a gobbler running in and they "inserted" the squealing hen call and they got called out on it. It was a very short lived product.
IMO one of the biggest jokes out there, now hens do make this call but if you heard her doing it you would have been about 20ft away from her at most. Watch some of the YouTube promos for the call and the kicker was the same call was promoted as a coyote call and cow elk call... All they did was change the color of the call (Black, Tan and Green) and wording on packaging LOL marketing scheme...
MK M GOBL
I just saw Mike Waddel on his show with Mr Knight and Mr Hale and they were fanning. I couldn't believe they were fanning. I got to thinking maybe they were trying to connect with a new generation of hunters. It made me think. Even though I wouldn't do it, if fanning was good enough for these two greats of turkey hunting maybe they see something I don't. I still wouldn't do it, but the way I see it "a house divided will fall." Just my :z-twocents: worth.
It's true a house divided will fall but so will a house run by lazy slobs.

The old greats are in it for the money ? Attracting new hunters (customers) with new ideas, calls etc. Innovation has been their motto. Waddell and the gang joined them???
They seem like completely different types of hunters. Well it's their business decision and I would have to think that they would do well.
I kinda liked their old videos.
They got their fan for sell yet! ::)
I've actually stopped watching hunting shows all together. The majority of them are shot on game farms where herds of deer walk by and squadrons of turkeys inhabit the land. Most of the settings have food plots or crop fields, and the hunters tell us to set up between the roost/bedding area and the food source. Then they do just that and wait for the critters to mosey by on their way to eat. And then there's the incessant hawking of their products. I got fed up with them, and I didn't feel like paying extra to watch these shows. So I don't.
I would love to see one of these "professional hunters" come down to Florida and hunt heavily pressured public land. Now that would make for a boring TV show. :lol:
They need to come hunt a WMA in MS.... See what they are made of.

To some, money IS everything; that leads for a sad existence. I, for one, prefer to be respected. I don't care if you are worth $100 million, or $1, if nobody respects you, what do you really have? It is truly sad to see grown men run around like a bunch of bafoons just to make a buck...

I'd be willing to bet that 95% of all the crap pushed out on hunting shows are done this way. Splicing in audio or video out of sequence to make it look like that turkey came in or big buck showed up due to the use of that call or scent or whatever. Clever edits can go a long way to make something more than what it is. Meanwhile a lot of people watching these shows (and let's face it, they are the ones buying the snake oil here) eat it up and think "hey this worked for Joe Jackass on that hunting show, so it should work for me too".

So Eddie promoted the H.S. Strut Squealing Hen Call... Now I can't say this was not a push for selling a "New" product that was all the rage to just make turkeys coming running. One deal I heard with this is that they used some old footage of a gobbler running in and they "inserted" the squealing hen call and they got called out on it. It was a very short lived product.

Can the same be said for scent elimination and scent elimination products?
I'd be willing to bet that 95% of all the crap pushed out on hunting shows are done this way.

Some yes and some no. I have two scentlock/scent blocker suits. I bought them because they were on sale after deer season and they are very well made. I still use both of them now 8 years later and they have held up well and still aren't faded. Do I think that they provide any scent elimination? Heck no.
However, I am a believer in the some of the sprays. Many years ago, I had a sweaty old hat that I wore every day that needed to be washed pretty bad. I sprayed the inside of the hat to experiment and see how well it worked. The smell actually disappeared. Now I don't believe that the scent elimination sprays do too much against perfumes, fuel smells, etc.
