RE: Hunting Shows...What's More Impressive?
A few things I dislike:
I'll use Les Johnson's Predator Quest as a prime example of way too much editing and "Hollywood'ism". I can't stand shows where after the kill, they set up again, and re-enact the whole scenario. Drives me nuts. I know its fake, and so does everyone else.
I really like the way Jim Shockey, and TCs new show are setup/layed out. Gettin Close With Lee & Tifany is also very well played out.
I want to see high quality footage, I love seeing the work that goes into the harvesting of these big deer (planting food plots, etc). I really like "un-cut" footage, sure you can edit out the boring stuff, but when the deer/etc appears, I don't want anymore editing. Let it play out as it happens in my opinion.
