Default RE: THE PRO'S AND LOST ANIMALS...

Boy, you guys sure are apt to make someone look like an arse. I asked spoke with a very popular hunting personality and asked him if it ever became more of a job than a past time. He said there were YEARS when he went on hunts, bought the hamburger, but couldn't afford the fries or coke that went with it and drank water. He is now the CEO of Primos. Most of these guys may miss, but geeze look at the caliber deer they miss! They take probably 20x as many shots per year on animals as we do, lo and behold they miss! Freakin crap crucify them. For Christ's sake, does anyone on here think they have contributed as much to HUNTING as Bill Jordan or Jackie Bushman have? Do I agree w/ all the shots they take? No! But do I sit on here and pick them apart like a monday morning quarterback? No, I don't do that either. I bet most of these guys did without a LOT to get what they have now, and maybe no one here is taking away from that but it sure seems like it. Are they perfect? No. But alas, neither am I. No, most of the pro's on tv may not be pro's. In fact, another big time hunter said all of his guysLOVE bowhunting the most b/c it's the hardest. They also all admit that they are no better than the average hunter, just lucky enough to score a big time job. Evidently, you have to be a salesman, a hunter, and have a good personality. So they aren't perfect, didn't Carlos Hathcock miss a time or two???
