First of all why does it always have to be with a " real" bow, Last time I checked my compound was a " real" bow. I guess I get tired of the guys that use a long or recurve bow telling or hinting that they are better because they use a " real" bow.

But to get back to the question at hand, Yea I like his shows they are intertaining, and yea I am realistic, I know most of the hunts are on game farms, thats why you don' t see his name on giant crocket bucks. But I like to watch the big boys walking thru the woods.

And they wont hunt your " farm" if there was not large bucks to be shot, you don' t just walk in any woods and expect to shoot a large buck. If the land doesnt hold big ones, you cant just pull them out of the air. Now look what you made me go and do, I let the secret out[:@].

I have to agree with the folks, that had I the financial resources to hunt the quality of deer Bill Jordan has access to, I would in a second. It' s entertaining and quite honestly, I purchase the set every July to get me pumped for the upcoming season....keep ' em coming realtime boys!!

For those of us who enjoy the series.

i have watch his shows also i watch for 5 differant weekends and seen him arrow a 12 pointer every time ???? its entertaining its better than watching soap opras. but i love hunting the hunting part is what i enjoy the most i never hunt with a guide because i am the one that duz not find game screws up my chances and makes my harvest if i used a guide that would take the part of hunting i love the most away. as far as bill hes just another guy doing it his way.

Three years ago at the August Nascar race in Michigan ( we have gone every year since I was in 8th grade and I am 38 now) I was walking through the merchandise trailer area and looked over at the realtree trailer and was looking at the real nice buck mounts that they had at each end, and all of a sudden I realized Bill was standing there. I walked up and we started talking hunting. He stood there and talked to me for about 35 minutes. We were swapping stories and he was genuinely interested in hearing about some of my successful hunts here in Ohio. He would stop me and ask me for more detail as I told the story, so I knew he was really listening and interested. Man he was the most down to earth and nicest guys I have ever talked to. I told him that my buddies would never believe that I swapped hunting stories with him, and he said well here you can prove it to them, and he whipped out a really nice picture of him and personalized it and signed it. He wrote " To my new pal Brett, thanks for some great conversation. Good luck in all your hunts. Your new friend, Bill jordan. We talked a few more minutes and then another guy with a walkie talkie told him they needed him down at Buckshot' s trailer ( Buckshot jones was driving the Realtree car that part of the season). He shook my hand and thanked me for some great stories, and then he reached over and grabbed a Monster Bucks T- shirt, signed it and told me that was for taking my time to share my hunts with him. I couldn' t believe it. When he left my wife said that is one of the coolest things that I have ever seen a guy in his position do. I liked him before that, but he made a fan for life here. He didn' t have to be that gracious at all. Great guy.

Its entertainment thats the bottom line. However it is hard to argue with what he has done for the hunting community.

Down to earth guy considering his position and celebrity status. He definately knows hunting and puts forth an effort. I like how he keeps to his standards, not shooting a deer just b/c of a kill on film, I have seen many shows where Bill or others went home with nothing. He shows missed shots, hits/reaction of the game, follow up reaction of the hunter, wait for the deer to expire (not rush), tracking, gives some advice(but not the law style), hunts different areas and game. He does do management buck shows, which shows the need to cull or advocate deer management(not all big buck harvests). While I find it to be a bit much on the realtree camo, I understand his need to market and sell himself and his patterns. Personally I don' t use or like his camo, but that doesn' t mean I don' t like him or his work. I feel in comparison to other shows he provides a good mix and enjoy watching(unlike JACKO).

I know for fact not all his hunts are in fenced operation, he states none are and all are fair chance(but he does frequent ranchs and I am sure they must have some sort of containment for their herd). Take it for what it is meant to be, just plain entertainment. Entertainment is not always realistic(actually rarely), look at movies, TV, sports...the list goes on. Anybody boycotting or complaining that the Charlie' s Angels are half dressed, crime fighting young women or the Terminator is back all good and blowing up everything in his way that is evil...hardly realistic but still many will watch and enjoy. (just an analogy to my point)

I think he is a really bright guy. He does what he likes and makes a living at it. Some people don' t like him because they say his stuff is staged or whatever. That does not matter one bit. That is his business and if that is the way he wants things to go then that is his decision to make. When you start making your own videos and make your own camo then you can do what you want. Don' t fault someone because they do something different than you would or you do now. If it is legal then I say more power to him, by the way he must be doing something right if everyone is buying his stuff and they are or he would go under quickly.

Just for the sheer enjoyment of watching big bucks and getting my blood pumping for the upcoming deer season, the realtree videos are great. I thank Bill Jordan for producing these videos for that reason.

On the other hand, high$ areas and ranches is not something I would enjoy. It' s just the best way to get footage. At least the advertising is not excessive.

I can' t say that I am for hunting so called caged deer but I will say that I respect what he has built in the Realtree business. I can also say that I wish everyday that I could do what he does for a living. I would also like to see him hunt where I have to hunt but then again you wants to watch a show where the hunter never gets anything really big. Big Bucks sell products and thats the idea.

My father-in-law used to be the CEO of one of Bill Jordens many companies (Imersion Graphics), which is a company that has a patented " dipping" process for applying camo patterns on anything from Bows to four wheelers. I met Bill at a birthday party and talked with him for a couple of hours. Know this.....he is a BUSINESS man and business men are in the business of making money. He wears expense clothes, high dollar watches and was sporting a " trophy" on his arm (he had just divorced his wife). I must say " she" was one of his finest trophies he' s ever taken.
We all have pipe dreams of shooting monster bucks, don' t we? Unfortunately, most of us will never have the opportunity due our financial status. It takes money to hunt with the big boys. Maybe someday one of those monster bucks will stubble onto my side of the fence and I will introduce him to Mr. Montec and Mr. Gold Tip.
I say, if they have the money and the time to hunt the big high fence operations, then more power to them. I know I would.
Happy Hunting.
