I also certainly agree with those that have expressed thier dislike for the commercialization of hunting. I don't like it either, however, it the price we must pay for the advancements in the sport - better equipment, more competition etc. It's part of the dyanamic of capitalism.

For those of us who are annoyed by certain "celebrity" hunters, it probably means that we've watched TV too much and need to turn it off. Let's not begrudge others success. I'm sure most of us would be willing to trade places very quickly.
