Yep you gotta be right it has to be tough to sit in a stand all those hours and watch a planted field and wait for the right buck to come along oh and by the way get paid for it. Yep thats tough. I'm not downing them but give credit where credit is due. I spend hours and days in the stand to get a basket rack and am damn proud of it yes I like to see those hugh deer but I know I will never get to hunt them I will never have the money but one thing is for sure if I ever hit the lottery you will be watching old Roy hunting all those ranch's and farms.................

Take a child hunting,for they are not only our future but also the future of hunting. Roy .

while it is true they are entertaining us,at the same time how many of us have 20 to 30 thousand acres to manage and buy their products to make them grow big and healthy,to me they seem to push their seed more than ever while it may help on large tracts of land in texas which has poorer quality land how about the average joe who has a 100 acres do you believe it actually helps these people or the people who sell the seed to thousands of 100 acre people.

If you wanna see some more realistic hunting...and can put up with (or fast forward past) the commercial parts of it, I suggest "That's Hunting" and "That's hunting 2" You see these guys shoot little bucks, and does. Yeah, They get a couple of big ones...but at least you get the feeling that was a BONUS, not the norm.
Oh yeah...they are FREE....well.....$3 P&H but where else you gonna get vids for $3?

The thing I dont like about these videos, is that they pass off what they are doing as hunting, and I guess it is, after a fasion, but compared to what most of us have to do to get a deer, its not even remotely similar. Killing tame deer off cornpiles and shooting barnyard turkeys makes it easier to get good film footage, but hunting pressured and truly wild animals is much harder to film. I have to laugh out loud sometimes when I see these big bucks look up at the camo camera and lick his lips and just walk on by. Where I hunt, if a buck sees you he will turn inside out getting the hell out of there. And no turkey in my hunting woods will ever stand around after seeing anything that wasnt there yesterday. I still watch them though, so I guess I support it in a way. I just dont see it as real hunting, at least not the kind I get to do.

Irishlad32 there are alot of 10 pointers that are not monsters.I trying to put anyone on this board down.I have around 100 videos and in 80% of them you can hunt in the exact spot the hunters are killing the deer.As far as the cost of the hunts save your money.You can't kill a monster if it dosen't live in your area.These guys worked hard to be able to hunt for a living.Now they are being rewared by being paid.We should be happy for these guys.I am with stealthman if you are not happy with your hunting situation then do something about it(knock on dooors and ask permisssion).

If you really have spent the last two full weekends hunting and saw "nothing" then plopped down in front of the TV, then perhaps you you are spending too much time in front of the TV and not enough time scouting. I guess I don't see the connection between Realtree Outdoors and YOU not seeing anything. It's not THEIR fault- it's YOURS.

RE: My turn to vent, Realtree Outdoors
 

It appears you have given us TWO reasons for you not seeing deer for two full weekends. Neither one seems to be the fault of Realtree Outdoors.

Larry338,
Which vids are you watching that showes " Killing tame deer off cornpiles" ?
I just wanna make sure I don't buy those....I like the rest of them though

RE: My turn to vent, Realtree Outdoors
 

Lets see more of the preparation and scouting for these hunts and time spent in the tree stand so I could see that they just don't get up in a tree a 5:30 am and shoot a deer a 6:30am. We need more.
