most all of the first season was shot with either a xl1 or gl2. I'm filming with an xha1 now and use the hunter cam cradle.

RE: HOW TO START YOUR OWN HUNTING SHOW
Sorry to resurrect an almost 2 month old thread but I wanted to say that I have enjoyed filming my own hunts with a consumer camera but I don't intend for it to be on TV. As far as TV hunting goes, I've come to enjoy Billy Molls' "The Modern Day Mountainman" show on The Pursuit Channel. He's a guide with a camera and has essentially turned his "home videos" into a TV show. He told me that he frequently uses a little Sony HC26. I suppose it shows that you don't always have to have a $3000+ camera to film your hunts.
Can anyone recommend a good production service that can take your home video footage and edit it into a DVD with some music and graphics? This is strictly for personal use so I'm not looking to spend thousands of dollars for a DVD. I've seen a couple of places on the internet that perform the service for $300-$800 but I don't know about their quality and value.
About the bow hunting compared to gun hunting shows, it does seem that a majority of the shows today are bow hunting shows. I don't bow hunt but I don't have anything against it. Having said that, I do get tired of watching bow hunts where the animals have to be left for hours, and sometimes overnight, when the temps are in the 70's, 80's, and even 90's. That is a pure waste of meat and it seems like the animals are just killed for television purposes. This happens way too often with some of the more well known "TV hunting personalities" too! I do know that there are gun hunters who make bad shots but you do see more clean and instant kills with guns.
Thanks!

Thanks for the replies fellas. I've got several hours of duck hunting and deer hunting but I'm not worried about those right now. I'm going on my first elk hunt in October and I will probably want to have it edited into a nice DVD. Just guessing....I may wind up with 1 to 2 hrs of raw footage of the trip.

IMO, you need a drive and passion more than anything if you truly want to do something in the hunting industry. I had a vision to make a different kind of hunting video. I started with a Canon GL2 camera and 9 months later released our first video - "Beyond the Kill". If you want something bad enough, have the determination and work ethic to back it up - you can accomplish anything your heart desires. I'm living and hunting proof!
