RE: tred barta?
I don't often watch any hunting shows any more, but I do watch Barta when I'm channel surfing and catch his show. Yep, he's got ego and to spare but there is one thing I really like about him... other than the fact he shoots a longbow.
He doesn't prostitute himself or his ideals for the sake of getting sponsors like all - yes, I said ALL - the other hunting show stars do.
And he doesn't cover up his screw-ups. I have yet to see him gut shoot an animal and tell how it was a perfect hit, like I've seen on so many other shows. Barta's no more a disgrace than any other. He just doesn't go over his show with a bucket of whitewash before he puts it on the air.
