I read the first page of this thread and then skipped to the last page of the thread so i do not know if anyone else said this, but i am going to say it anyway. I like watching most of the hunting shows (for entertainment only). I does perturb me when people think these people are great hunters because they kill big bucks, because they are on managed ranches that only allow so many hunters to hunt and if you look up the prices it is $3-10,000 to hunt there.

The two i have the most respect for are Lee and Tiffany and the Drury brothers, because they hunt their own property and put the work in to manage the land. The only advantage they have over average Joe's like me is they own land and if you have watched them enough you will hear them say that when they bought the properties they had to pass bucks sometimes for 2-3 years to get the deer to the point where they were shooting 150+ class deer.
