I didn't see this one. I saw Tred take a pig with a knife and I lost all respect for the nut case. They chased the piglett with dogs till it couldn't run no further. Then they tackled the little 40 lbs pig, had like 6 guys holding it down and the nut case, when all is safe, comes up and stabbs the little pig. The only danger to him was from him swinging the knife!
As a junior in HS we cought a baby pig, bigger than the one Tred stabbed, and let him go at the senior banquet. We had girls in evening gowns that showed more balls than Tred that evening.
What I don't get is the man obviously has talent, he knows how to hunt, if he can take a grizz with a stick and string, why belittle himself with such a cowardly act as that pig hunt was? More than likely he was in little danger with the grizz. I didn't see it, don't really care too. I'd bet off camera, they had enough firepower to vaporize that grizz. if things went wrong.
I wonder how many kids saw the pig hunt and said cool, I want to try that? They hyped it up to sound like he was going one on one with a dangerous wild bore. Turned out to be 10 on one plus dogs with a 40 lbs piglet. A grizz turd with little beaty eyes would be a good ending for him.
The first time I watched his show he took a mountain goat. I was impressed, kind of thought that his stick and string was so much more effective when you have the money to scout and hop from one mountaintop to another with a hellicopter. Poor man like me would have to pick a mountain and climb it.....He must be doing something right.
Then I watched the pig hunt and have not watched another.
I'm sorry to say I know little more about the man, I haven't looked passed that show. He seems like someone I could learn a lot from, would be interesting to meet and hunt with but not piglet hunting with a knife. That was A mistake. We've all made 'em. For those of you that know him better, is he good or bad for hunting, TV and image wise? I know I called him a nut case, but consider my name. Pot calling the kettle black. Want a good show, put Tred with Uncle Ted. That should be entertaining. lol
