Default what's your most hated word or phrase on hunting shows

I have several, but the absolute worst is FOLKS! I just hate it when they start Folks'n this and that. I wish they would just talk to the cameraman instead of trying to talk to me throught the tv. I saw a guy the other day say it about 10 times before he completed a sentence.

I don't like it when they reffer to antlers as ( horns ) you would think they know better.

I hate when they say they have been hunting hard all week when they are sitting in a house on stilts with a fireplace and in a recliner. It also bugs me that after they shoot the deer and you can see it fall, that they still continue to whisper. If I ever shoot a buck like they do, you all will hear me yelling..........lol

My absolute worst is "DANDY". I hate that word. I'm pretty sure it is a northern thing.

My pet peeve isn't so much something thats said more than something thats done.

I hate to see the outfitter touch the animal before the hunter. When the hunter and the outfitter walk up to a dead animal and the outfitter squats down and grabs hold of the antlers first, I don't know, it just bugs me.

Granted, the outfitter set the hunter up on the animal, but it's the hunter's kill.

okay heres what i hate, they go on a 3 day hunt and they take there deer right, the deer is laying there DEAD still and the sneak up to it thinking its going to jump up and bite them and then afterwards they say "well we've hunted hard all week and really put in a lot of time" when all the actually did was go to the outfitter and they showed them where to go and they didnt have to do anything but release the arrow

When they say its a good hit and it was obvious it was a gut shot.
