If they had invested that time into showing how and why they chose their setups, it would have been time better spent... Wait, we're talking about Bill Jordan here... Never mind; I'm sure he didn't know how and why they chose their setups, either.

...I agree...but...

your comment was funny...

Shed,

You are so right and I think his comments accurately reflect most folks that watch the videos.

No, I have not data other than the fact that they are sold in every Wally*World in the country. They are top 3 in sales regardless.

In-regard to they're camo, save you're money and buy a drab-green coverall. Realtree looses all of it's detail past about 10 ft. and turns into a blob!

Thx, that is what I thought, I love the comments from te 6th grader!!!!

Oh do you have data on the below statement,pictures of a guy in realtree at 10 ft and a guy in drab-green coverall?
Do I wear a hat or gloves with my coverall's? I would love to save some cash, enlighten me.

I would, but I get the camo stuff so much cheaper after the season than I can regular coveralls.

I pulled an old Monster Bucks video out of the archives two nights ago, and after watching those ridiculous 3D competitions with Jeff Foxworthy and his sidekick, I realized why I quit buying those and started shifting my video budget

Very well said. I'm glad to here things have changed. More bowhunts are always nicer as well! I'll have to go pick a copy up.

I actually thought the first one was HILLARIOUS! It went down hill a little after that, though. The 3D competition was certainly overplayed, last years wasfriggin JOKE! So, I'm glad to hear they changed things up a bit. Personally, I really enjoy watching them. As you said, take it with a grain of salt and forget the commercialism.

But hey, the videos have done their job. Selling camo. Isn't Realtree the BEST all time selling pattern? I think so, but can't remember. Personally, I don't think there is a better pattern than the original Realtree pattern from like 15 years ago.
