I wish I had read this post before the show was on tonight. Unreal that I just watched it and got on computer to see what was going on. I would have paid a lot more attention than I did if I had known I was watching the show in question. It did look like a bad shot to me also, but without paying really close attention, I didn't notice if it was a different deer or not. Do you guys KNOW it was a different deer for sure?? If so this show should be yanked. That's ridiculous to be so desparate for footage to show someone make a horrible, irresponsible shot, and then show a staged recovery scene with another buck. Are we SURE that's what happened???????
I didn't pay close enough attention, so I just want to know if anybody is 100% positive about it. I did notice that the staged scenes of the archer in the tree drawing on the buck were in full bright sunshine, looked to be about mid-day, whereas the shot scene was cloudy, lowlight conditions. This suggest the different edited and spliced scenes used to make-up that show were filmed at different times, maybe even different days!
My guess is the most useful thing would not be to email the "Better Built" website, but instead email the Outdoor Channel website. If you really want to get a kid in trouble, don't you tell his parents????????? Maybe email them both.
My take is this: These people really suck. This results in minimal amounts of quality hunting footage. Therefore, in order to produce the show, they have to start off by hunting fenced enclosures to improve their odds. Then they have to use pathetic footage like what we saw and lie about it. To further fill the gap,"Better Built world of HUNTING" is now showing fishing shows(not enough hunting footage). And if that's not enough, how about burning up some airtime with hillbilly Jacques???
I will never watch this show again, even if it was the same buck. I can't stand this kind of crap![:@][:@][:@][:@] Good bye Crock Ray, I mean Brock Ray...
