RE: Hunting videos and expectations
If your BIL expects every hunt to be like what he sees in those carefully edited , and sometimes staged , videos then he's set himself up for disappointment . It can take several weeks just to shoot the raw footage , and quite often they splice in stock footage so that a kill shot is guaranteed . Pure Hollywood , just the dream , not the work leading up to it . If he's really discouraged then tell him this for me , it took me 6 years to get my first deer , and it was just a button buck .
