The biggest problem IMHO with today's TV hunting shows it that a LOT of the "hunters" are photogenic. In order to have a good show, you've got to have a good-looking person in front of the camera... They may not have a shooting or hunting background coming in, but given a fence or tons of ground and lots of game good things are supposed to happen, right?

I have a friend who went on a filmed hunt a few years ago, and shot a decent buck on camera. He spent about 4 hours the next day filming the "shot" from the hunter cam angle. I guess it was too difficult to capture all at once. Made for good TV I guess... Not very realistic.

A lot of the shows today are about as realistic as what passes for reality TV on the major networks.

There are a few decent shows I try to watch if opportunity permits. Most of them aren't worth the time.
