i signed it....what a disgrace to all of us real hunters...he should be banned for life.

The funny thing is that when Jimmy is no longer on the air, you people will believe that you had something to do with it.lol. Jimmy has already dug his own grave A YEAR AGO.. Your petition is like beating a dead dog.. Maybe you could start a new post about the Clinton scandal, I don't think it was beat enough.. Or how about we bring up something allyou people have done wrong.. Oh yeah you are all perfect little do gooders. Nobody wants the anti's to here about this, but you people are drawing all the attention to it.. Daaa

We have to stand up and say enough, we have to distants ourselves from people like Houston. We have to show non-hunters, there are ethical hunters and people like Jimmy Houston. We have to lead the fight against the Jimmy Houstons.

its not about beating a dead dog and even if the petition has nothing to do with it the point will be made that us as hunter will not stand for this kind of behavor.Yes he dug his own grave but its been long enough and yet he still has a show, he still has sponsors and is still out there representing us as hunters.i will not stop until he can no longer do that if that makes me a bad person in your eyes so be it i can sleep just fine at night knowing you do not agree with me

You lost me here.[&:]There is no video of him actually shooting a deer in this pen. Apparently he never used any footage from this place for any hunting videos , yet you started a petition to ban any and all of his hunting videos from being televised. So in essence , your trying to ban his livelyhood because he made some poor decisions , and you feel he gives hunters a bad name.
Is that correct?
If it is , in all fairness , you should include a list of many others who "represent" us hunters by way of hunting videos , and even their own hunting shows.

You said he had pictures of a deer shot ,"in a field" ,on his web site. Was it the same buck from the video?

First your wrong there is video of him shooting the buck in a pen and he has even admitted to that. he claims the pen was 160 acre pen and not a 3 acre pen.He claims the video we have all seen was tampered with tho, even if that is the case he was still wrong to climb into that stand and watched thatbuck run into a fence before he shot it all with a smile on his face..I am trying to ban his livelyhood because he lied to everyone. yes the picture of the buck he shot at the bellar farm where posted on his web site until yesterday,where he told all his fans that it was a fair chase hunt. the reason it upsets me the most is he is a representative of all of us hunters. we have enough trouble with law makers and alot of anti hunting groups as it is and if we do not stand up for ourselves then we will just be included with the small group of so called hunter like him. yes there are other guys that have shows that i am sure have done things like this and maybe worse but until i see them on video doing it or there is some kind of proof we can do nothing but sit back and hope we never hear or see it.I am not here to tell anyone to sign the petition i am just asking them to look at the evidence and make the choice they feel is right.I could care less if i was the only one to sign it i still would have started it just so i knew i was doing some thing i belived in and tried my best to make a difference.

I watched "the freakin video"!I still didn't see him shoot anything! You want me to cut his nuts off for doing something stupid?That's rich! I don't agree with him even stepping behind that fenced operation , but I'm not gonnapiss and moanabout it to his sponsors. I'll take the simple approach , I wont watch his shows or buy his videos. If it offends me that much I wont patronize his sponsors either.
If I was gonna start "cutting nuts off" from every yahoo I felt gave hunters a bad name , I'dhave hundreds of petitions going.
Personally , I feel any hunting behind fences (any size)makes us look stupid. Shall we start another petition?I also feel baiting is cheating (with or without a fence)and makes us look stupid. The list of petitions is getting bigger isn't it?

Those video clips weredisgusting. It makes me proud to have only killed one deer since 1999!

then don't sign it, that simple.

i think when he fishes hes just on HUGE ponds not lakes.. but anyway i met him last year and he was jerk when i tried to talk to him

im missing something what did brooks and dunn do not a big fan i just have not heard
