Title: Wildgame Nation show is terrible
Post by: northms on February 11, 2011, 04:54:52 PM
This show is painful to watch.  It's a full out advertisement for 30 minutes.  I'm convinced the dad nor the 2 sons know much of anything about hunting.

Michael Waddell is on the show and I can't believe he would endorse their stuff, guess for enough money you will endorse anything.

When it comes to deer hunting I also just watch them shoot deer over bags of poured out grain and then brag...give me a break.  I refuse to watch this show anymore.   :-\

I second your thoughts.  I even have the benefit of not living to far from there farm.  Which by the way is high fenced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People like that give hunting a bad name.

I saw a country singer take a speed goat on their show with a cross bow freehand at like 98yds or something ridiculous.  Why even shoot that far when the chance of wounding an animal is so great? Pa-thet-ic! All for the fun of saying you shot that far?? Their products are crap and their ethics are crap. A hole lotta crap.

Yep, I like a lot of the shows on the Outdoor Channel but I can't stand watching this one, it's a joke.

I agree that their show is junk.  I have lost a lot of respect for Waddell and anyone else that works with them.  The one thing I do like about them is that they don't hide the fact that they are baiting, which is more than I say about many other outdoor personalities.  I watched one show where a deers face was covered with their greens-n-raged and they were bragging about it.  Don't forget to pick up one of their gunslaters before the season.

I can stand to watch Jim Shokey or Drury, sometimes, but for the most part I just don't watch those channels much any more. I still like flipping through cabels or bass pro and deciding what looks good to me. Hunting shows for the most part are 30min infomercials and maybe a decent hunt. I know people have to make a living, but it's getting old.

they are a super rich spoiled family, they take private jets around to high fence hunts that they use feed and bait on its pathetic. Saw a turkey hunting episode where they were advertising inbetween hunts for their new turkey decoy but the entire hunt didnt use their own #%^& decoy they used stuffers and DSD.

All theirs stuff is cheaply made in china and heavily marketed but dont ask them to stand behind their product

Im not picky about TV show and try not to judge ppl from my couch but those people arent sportsman they just give us a bad name

I quit watching most of these shows, because I was getting too ticked. I'd be better doing a cooking show than those guys attempting a hunting show.

Fellas this is what happens when the dollar bill has more to do with it than anything. It's sad to say but that's how it's going. Knight and Hale, Primos, and HS Strut are just as bad except for the fact that they started out right but have been forced to go this direction to survive....

There was an episode a year or so ago where they spent nearly the whole show bragging about their plane and what a pain in the neck it was to 'have' to do photo shoots for their sponsors. Of course the next 10 minutes were spent posing for cameras and hobnobbing with celebrities.
They are in it for all the wrong reasons in my book.

Yeah its pretty good.  There is a show called Wardens in Montana on the outdoor channel that is pretty good too.

Both Wild Justice and Game Wardens are great shows. My only issue is there is very little talk about legal and ethical hunters. I wish they would point out that the people they are busting do not represent every hunter in the woods!

I dont have any respect for them or about 99% of the so called "pro " hunters.    Several years ago it was good tv but most have sold out now.

Well if you guys ban together and give me good salary and a few mexicans with cameras, I bet I will make a hunting show WORTH watchin!  Atleast the turkey hunting part.......if you like to see dead animals I would be a good fit.  Trophy animals....not so much.

Not sure about the places they travel to for hunting, but their place in Louisiana is not high fenced and has some huge deer on it.  They manage for age not size and have some awsome bucks.  I have seen some of the racks that come off there.  They do have some fencing along roads and a few other areas, but you can drive right through it on public roads and there are no fences.  They manage it very well.  They may have a few to many deer, but what area in Louisiana doesn't?

I said this long ago. There aren't very many shows worth watching. They are the reason we pay through the nose for either a guided or out of state hunt. Just look at the prices of some hunts.
