RE: Bowhunting TV Shows - likes/dislikes?
I like to see the interaction between hunters -- other than thank you for the opportunity to hunt blah blah blah and/or my professional guide blah blah blah (I am not sure what they say b/c blah blah blah is all I hear after that or I change the channel).
Plus, I like to see the animal from several sides. Got a nice rack with horns on the back? Turn the head sideways and show me. In fact, I want to see the rack from all sides, not just from the front and as a second thought.
And when you make a shot with a bow that drops a 430 pound hog in his tracks, show me the shot placement. I LOVE the shot placement corner on Archer's Choice. Being a novice bowhunter I want all the info about the shot I can get.
My two all time dislikes are (1) I drew back my trusty "Insert brand name here" bow and fired off my "Insert brand name here" with the "Insert brand name here" broadhead or I snapped the safety off on my "Insert brand name here." At the end of the hunt, if you want to mention that you used such and such, I am fine with that. Or a list of what you are using before the hunt is fine also. Just don't "Insert brand name here" during the hunt. And, (2) talking a mile a minute while we watch the animal approach. My husband and I both end up yelling at the TV "Just shut up!" Talk about the animal. Say he is getting closer. Here he is. Fine. But nonstop chatter is irritating as heck!
