For the record in regards to the post in front of mine, I carry my own bag and always have, and have NEVER EVER said what you posted, and I don't watch Nascar and have never met a driver.

It amazes me how many people sit here and slam other people out of pure jealousy. Anyone of you that have bashed the Lakosky's or any other pro hunter would also jump at the moment to be doing the same as they are. I would probably have to call anyone who says different a liar. Would you all rather be working your boring 9 to 5 jobs or living the dream of hunting/scouting whitetail 365 days a year?

Tiffany, since you are commenting here take some advice from one "regular" hunter (or not). This is my opinion of most all of the current "hunting" (I use that term loosely) shows.
We are sick and tired of seeing yet another "big buck down" that you have given names to and watched grow up over the years through your game cameras over another manicured 5+ acre food plot. Get out and hunt. In the real world of hunting deer like "Gnarles Barkley" don't walk out into the middle of a field during broad day light. The fact that you would also hunt elk over these same types of food plots with Jackie Bushman is just disgusting.
For Gods sake not everything that happens on hunting shows or every buck you kill is "unbelievable". You celebrity hunters must use that word a dozen times a show. It's not unbelievable, you do the same dang thing day in and day out. We've all seen it a hundred times. We believe it by now. You kill big bicks on big food plots.
We really don't care what some new celebrity country singer kills off of your or any one else's farm. If you want to impress the "regular" hunters that are buying the crap you are pushing why not try inviting hard working Joes" or hard working Soldiers, Sailors or Airmen to hunt your pet deer. Go on some hunts with Average Joes on their home turf and introduce them to some of your tips and tactics (other than buying land and growing deer) to kill big bucks.
Quit changing sponsors like you change underwear and quit touting the newest "gizmo" as the best thing to the hunting industry since the introduction of gun powder. We aren't that stupid. Give the 30 minute infomercial a rest. We all know that a 50 caliber projectile fired from any other ML rifle will kill the deer just as dead as the one fired from your Thompson Center. Or an arrow fired from any other bow other than Mathews will kill the deer just as dead. Give it a rest already.
Quit with the rehersed play backs leading up to the shot and the recovery. They are as fake as Pamela Andersons boobs. You aren't fooling any one. Show the hunt for what it really is. You are killing an animal. We want to see the blood, the entrance wound, the tracking, etc... etc... all of it. If you are going to show the shot in slow motion then show the whole dang shot. Don't cut away right when the arrow gets there.
Basically get some morals with your shows.
BTW, I feel the same way about Michael Waddells shows (played out more than a 10 cent hooker on nickle night) and IMO he is a heck of a nice guy too, Buckmasters (Jackie's as worthless at two ticks on a hound dogs butt), The Drury shows (arrogance personified), Mathews TV (could there be a bigger infomercial?), Huntin the world "southern style" (give me a firggin break), basically most of it is all the same crap from one show to the next.

I would absolutely hate it if I had to pay the bills by hunting. I never want to have to make a passion of mine into a job.
Call me a liar if you wish but that's how I feel about it. There are few celebrity hunters that actually command any respect IMO.

Hey Bigbulls,
Fair enough, appreciate your comments, may not agree but that is the great thing about living in the USA, I don't have to.
Best of luck this year.

Bigbulls, it would seem to me that the best thing you could do is turn off your TV or change the channel. Obviously, not everyone shares your views.

id rather watch Rick White or Greg Miller. or my personal favorite, Stan Potts. Stan gets more fired up over killing whitetails than anyone ive seen. He gets me pumped just watching it. i watch the crushsometimes. i prefer to see them hunt there farm in iowa.

I have killed some nice deer and I tell ya the one I felt the best about was a 7pt 16" spread killed on heavily hunted public land. Not even near my largest deer.
I was always told, never try to work doing what you love. You will end up hating it. I can see that.

The Lakoskys seem like genuinely nice people who truly enjoy what they do. If they can get sponsors to help pay for their adventures, more power to them... I'd do the same thing. (I think my wife's as pretty as Tiffany
, but, for some odd reason, she just doesn't seem to like hunting, so I suspect my chances of getting sponsors range from about zero to nil..).Edit: Almost forgot... Since Tiffany is here, my suggestion for the show: Stop using that darned fish-eye lens in your close-ups!
