Fact Mr. Joe, he lied about his entire backround experience. Google it if you don't believe me. Or read the statement given by Cody about the matter. It's also the reason he was fired by discovery.

Nah... I'm not an "Ends Justify The Means" kinda guy...
The Devil is in the Details.

I do kinda like the family in Alaska.
The one where the native woman does the shooting...
I'd like to hang and hunt with them.

The rest I Fast Forward through any more.   8)
But each to their own.

HIJACK WARNING!!!

Anybody watching Sleepy Hollow?
What kinda Bird of Prey is in that show?
Sharp Shinned Hawk maybe? Haven't had a chance to dig through my BOP Books yet...
Maybe I should start a Sleepy Hollow thread...   O:)

Yeah, I don't like the lack of turkey here... But I've got deer and elk in my yard every day. They think my place is safe because the old couple who was here before didn't hunt and didn't allow hunting on the ten acres of forest and two acre open field >:D >:D >:D

Black locust. Black locust everywhere.
Mollegabets all day long.
Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

Huisme: Are you not hunting with a bow, or how did you do? I do like the fact we have lots of elk. Ed
It's in my blood...

I'm taking one more year to practice before I take a shot at anything. I've been making bows a lot longer than I've been shooting them with accuracy in mind  ::) I've shot thousands of arrows at ten paces shooting in my bows, but only a few hundred as target practice with my vine maple bow I still haven't photographed and shown you guys.

But next year I'mma have a hay-day in my back yard  >:D

How about someone posing on the cover of an archery magazine with a buffalo that was shot with a 30-30?
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

I disagree, I a lie is a lie no matter who tells it and under which conditions. Putting out misinformation is telling a lie.

Couldnt agree more Eric.

It's simple and it's been said:

Don't ever believe anything you see on TV.

It's just always grossly out of context. Usually, if you think of the camera team that's present, all the staff and stuff that will be there, you already get a much better picture of what it really must have been like. It's just made purely with regard to what you see in the end. Whatever can conveniently be faked will be. Sequences will be changed, things cut. No bad intentions, just professionality.  ;D

Don't shoot!

Most of those survival shows disclaim that certain situations are set up to show what to do in that situation. When Bear Grylls came to the "wilderness" of Alabama ( ::)what a joke) he set a snare for a pig and when he didn't catch one they put one in the trap so they could show what to do if you caught one.  They place he came to "survive" in is hardly a mile wide in most places. I don't think it ever gets more than 3 miles wide. Hardly considered "Wilderness". It is still better than Sister Wives.

 If you want true reality then don't turn on a TV. Go get in the woods.

That about sums it up for me as well...

Only thing I would add is, "Or the Bow/Wood Shop"...  :)
