Theyre not supposed to represent the average hunter, they are entretainment just like any other reality show on television.I watch them because they contain animals Ill never see in places Ill more then likely never hunt.And as Kevin pointed out they push thier products in them.

Im not sure how they would represent what the average hunter does and not come across as boring.I deer hunt approximately 90 days a year.In that time frame Ill shoot my bow/gun maybe 3 or 4 times at animals.How entertaining are the other 86 days of my season going to be to watch on television?Not very, its fun for me but I wouldnt care to sit and watch it television.
