Hunting show host caught poaching

Nice healthy fine. Not sure how they will enforce a "world wide" hunting ban of 30 months?

Any time I flipped by his show it seemed like a nonstop source of propaganda that the animal rights folks wouldn't even have to spin to use.
 
I don't have a problem with naming deer to use as a reference when your trying to explain to your hunting buddies which deer you are talking about. I've done that. It's kind of like naming a tree stand. It just makes it easier to tell someone about the "Big Oak" stand vs saying " ya know that one stand over in the corner of that one field". I do believe that in the hunting shows it gets a little out of hand and I see that manifested in the younger generation when they talk about bucks they've seen. There seems to be a tendency to name everything "hercules" or "ba donk a donk". No thank you. Kinda reminds me of the end zone dance! But that's a rant for another day.
Yeah on our Lease we named a few for identification purposes. The Big 8, Loppy, the Twins. Only one we took last year was the Big 8. The Twins disappeared and Loppy showed up on Cam after the season.
 
Shame. The pressure to perform has screwed up many a person.I echo what others are saying about hunting shows. I just don't find anything about them interesting. Wish I did. And I wish there were shows that covered all aspects of the wonderful world of deer and habitat mgt. Used to like Chuck Sykes but don't see him anymore...not that I look.

I did host Ralf and Vikki. Cirincurella SP??? from the Archers Choice down to my ranch once and will confess I found them delightful and funny. Was good experience though there will be no more TV shows hosted by me anymore.

Chuck Sykes is Director of AL Wildlife now,since 2015/2016? And they moved the show he was on, The Management Advantage, to a web only format now.

We must be using the wrong type of coat hanger for an antenna; our coat hanger antennas have never received a hunting show. Guess I'll stick with the coat hanger we have been using though as it doesn't sound like missing the hunting shows was a big loss.
 
There is no doubt that we could make an amazing hunting show based on the activity of this forum. Keep it grounded in reality. Pick the most popular property tour threads and give each owner/forum poster an episode. It could include habitat improvement, food plot experiences, putting up fences, etc and maybe a 10 minute snippet from a hunt. People would watch that.

There would be only one rule - no screaming, shaking, fake crying, hollering, or anything of the sort after the successful killing of a deer. That part of these “hunting” shows is so off-putting.

I like this idea! It would be sort of like having "live" threads on the forum. Although I have to disagree about the shaking part of your "no" list because I think that is an involuntary, adrenaline thing that can't necessarily be controlled (I know I shake a little)....but I like the other no's. Maybe a list of certain phrases should be banned too? "Smoked him", "Right through the boiler room", etc.

Regarding the shows, I'm in agreement with all of you in that I haven't watched any in quite a few years and I don't even have the outdoor channel. I stick to mostly podcasts from habitat guys but I do like Bill Winke and the Midwest Whitetail youtube videos they put out.
 
Glad he's off the air. One of the most Cringeworthy hosts I had ever seen.
I love how he tapes himself reading the bible in the blind in episodes, and quoting scripture, then does this. Guy is a Joke. Hope his camera man finds new work :)
 
Actually guys, there is a ton of very good hunting shows on both cable tv, and YouTube that have very good content. The fear no evil show that Chris Brackett had was not of them.

The scary part about Brackett is that the day after he plead guilty in court he was asking everyone on social media where he should go to hunt whitetails in early season. Somehow he’s allowed to hunt before he’s sentenced in November but it doesn’t seem right to me. I’m not a fan of Chris Brackett and feel that he’s as fake as fake gets and has found religion as a strategic move for his career. Hopefully he gets what he deserves.
