    Nick Mundt is the serious killer in that trio. T Bone is funny, and a shooter but limited how he hunts. Weddell settled down a lot with his second wife.
    But Mundt is serious.

        Being laid up the last 2 weeks nursing shoulder surgery I have been watching more TV than I normally would in 6 months..
        That being said I have been watching quite a few of these JegLeg hunting shows..
        I'm blown away and disgusted at how many TV yahoos are perfectly fine with "coming back tomorrow" after evening hunts to track bucks that clearly hit vitally.. Mortally wounded.. They announce it the minute they get out of the blind/stand and before zero effort is taken to find the animal... Unreal.. Then they return the next morning and find the deer easily.. It didn't go 75 yards and guess what? Coyotes have ate or destroyed everything but the head BUT WAIT they are perfectly fine with that because they "found the rack"!!! This really burns my azz!!
        They obviously do not know how irresponsible this is or do not think this is wrong because they are always so proud to have just found just the "Rack"... They are in it clearly for the wrong reason.. I just wittnessed this on a show called "The Final Decent" and that's is just one of many..... They also do other things that make it obvious that they are clueless but I'm done typing!! That some serious BS!!!
        Seems to me that if it were brought to the attention of a local game warden, he may be interested in investigating lack of reasonable effort to retrieve game.

        These TV shows seem to kill lots of animals and they're always out traveling so that cuts into their time having to have a plan for the meat for each one.

          They don't have a nationwide dog tracking list.

            Yes.. Jim Shockey is the real deal and always has been.. He is disgusted by some of these same things.. If I was going to set my DVR to record a hunting show it would be his.. A Yukon moose hunt with him is a hunt that I really want to do before I get too old...

              Maybe write to some of the sponsors about hunting ethics? Agree with most here and don't watch any of them. The shot angles finished me off.

                  My half brother is from Jersey. No hunting experience whatsoever. He was on an outdoor kick for awhile and stumbled across a Donnie Vincent clip a few years back. Truly some great footage on his videos. So I told my brother about “the outdoor channel” and also “sportsman’s channel” after the first night if watching it he said “ it was very hard to tell weather it was the show or commercials. Do they make their own commercials during the shows? I was confused “

                  I laughed. And realized not only are there a ton of commercials during the show but most of the show is advertising as well.

                    Problem for me with shockey is he sounds and acts like a rich guy with no grasp of the average hunter. Like he is on some spiritual hunting plane us mere mortals can't hope to attain.
                    Plus he is a rifleman first and I prefer bowhunting.

                        I haven't had the outdoor channel in a long time, but I'm amazed at some of the stuff that makes it on there vs what's available on Youtube and Roku etc.

                        Bowhunt or Die on Youtube - all bowhunting and a TON of episodes, but we've lost a couple to coyotes over the years. It happens.

                        Midwest Whitetail on Youtube - almost all bowhunting, and the video quality is usually top notch, and the music is low-key.

                        Destination Elk on Youtube - I've gotten into some elk hunting vids a bit more, and these guys are enjoyable to watch. A fair amount of bowhunting, but some rifle/ML as well.

                          I agree it's not about the rich. Rich folks make the economy run. I don't make much money on poor folks.
                          Like I said, it's the attitude of his elevated awareness. It's not I don't like him. I believe he is a stand up guy.
                          Kinda like those church folks who think their seat is a lot closer to God's than yours.
                          Just hard for me to relate to them. Or him.
