i too will venture some day to places like the above mentioned but using BASICALLY the same footage out of the same stand year after year is comical. i would like to see those rockstars ( not you ted) hunting in other remote places getting back to basics. if they spent time showing things like setting up areas to hunt and tracking and going to more states and abroad i just mite watch it more regularly. guess i will have to stick with watching HUNTING with Hank. a good dog never lets you down.

I think Jackie Bushwacked and Ben Gorden are both panzies!!!!!!Its true that I wouldn' t mind hunting some of the land that they do, but at the same time, they have some guide putting them in a stand and doing everything except shoot for them. I' d like to drop them both off at one of my hunting properties down here in the appalachains. No atv trails, no roads.....Just two directions, Up & Down. I very seriously doubt them having such great " luck" as they have on TV!!

Buckmasters called me to renue my stuff with them two different times.I went along with everything they said and did.we talked about ten min.asking qieations and I answered them all with faluse hoods. then at the end I said NO!!!! I don' t want it ever again.

they have never called me again.There TIME is there MONEY,so when you waste there time you waste ther money!!
they want call you again!

I never joined Buckmasters, so correct me if I' m wrong here, but doesn' t being a " Buckmasters" member suggest to you to try an get new members so that you get gifts? The more members you sign up the better the gifts get!! Talk about a scam or what!! So those phone calls that your getting could very well be some member trying to get you to sign up so he can get a bigger prize!![:@]

Mrs. Lewis,
I from the state of Alabama and I have personally seen Jacky Bushman and Buckmasters attack hunters. Not to long ago, maybe 4 or 5 year ago Jacky and some Buckmaster members from Alabama stood on the Capital steps in Montgomery the day an amendment was brought before the House to limit and or bannish the sport of dog hunting in Alabama. I do not dog hunt personally, but I have been with friends who do. I though Buckmasters was an organization for the hunter but I guess it is for hunters who don' t use dogs. Hunters of all sorts have been under attack for several years now and for Buckmasters and their leader to attack dog hunters is just not right. Once I saw this event publicized on TV channel WSFA in Montgomery I cancelled my membership. I am not advocating dog hunting but hunters and hunting organization should stand together. The antis do enough damage by themselves. There are newspaper articles that can be dug up from the Montgomery Advertiser to prove this action by the Bushman.

I breifly joined Buckmasters once and it was one of the worst mistakes I ever made. Withing a week of joining tons of crap started showing up in the mail. Not free stuff. Stuff I had to either buy or pack back up and send back to Buckmasters. To make matters worse they sent me two of every item. I was constantly getting bills for stuff I had already sent back. It was like being in the Columbia Record and Tape club from hell. I have never seen a more money hungry scamming bunch of cash hounds in my life. I put up with it for about 2 months before I finally called up and just went postal on their a$$. DO NOT EVER JOIN THESE CROOKS. They are only interested in trying to sqeeze just one more dime out of you. Although I can' t prove it I sincerely believe that they sold my name, adress, e-mail and phone number to every telemarketer and spam e-mail service on earth. Why, because withing a month of joining I started getting 60 junk e-mails a day and at least 4 telemarketer calls a day. They have tried to sell me everything on earth with Buckmasters stamped on the side. I honestly believe if they could get their name on a cow turd they would try to sell that as well. Avoid them like the plague!!!!!!!

Good for you Ann! I' ve been a Buckmaster member for over 10 years and quite frankly I consider Jackie Bushman a pioneer of good will for hunting throughout the media world. Yes, his t.v. shows and videos are somewhat stagey, but I am proud to have him and Buckmasters as a positive presence in OUR hunting community.

Ann, I will agree with you, in the beginning it was about the hunting for Jackie. But it is so obvious that once he figured out he could get rich, things started to turn sour. If you can watch his show or his videos and honestly say it' s about the hunting, you' re not being truthful to yourself. His shows have twice as much advertsing as almost all other shows on the market. Face it, Jackie got greedy, and he is bank rolling you to stick up for him. This board is very diverse with hunters from all over the country. From the posts I think you can get a good idea of how the hunting community feels about Jackie. And it' s not just Jackie, as far as I' m concerned Bill Jordan and Toxey Haas are just as bad. Somewhere along the line they lost focus of what it was all about, HUNTING, not raking in the millions of dollars. The people at Buckmasters really need to do some soul searching and get back to the basics.

One more thing, please tell Jackie that EVERYONE is sick of watching hunters shooting bucks out of some Texas tripod over a huge bait pile of corn.
