Well, I tend to disagree with Hunting shows giving hunters a black eye. I think it's like any other show in that they portray the "action" rather than the endless prep. Fishing shows are the same way. All show clean-cut people, going out in the field talking about conservation and ethical harvest. How does that give hunting a bad name? It beats the hell out of the image of Hunters as being drunken low-lifes, who shoot out of truck windows in the middle of the night. And before anyone gets all indignant, I have heard that stereotype many times over the years. I used to ride off-road motorcycles before an injury made me stop. A group of riders I know wouldn't ride in the National Forest during deer season due to "Drunks with guns". I think anything that can dispel that image is good for the sport. Ok, now I'm out to see if I can get $10,000.00 so I can sit in that heated blind with coffee and doughnuts!
