Its a hunting TV show. They are full of editing. Some good some bad. How many times has a guy watched a bow hunt on TV. 1 camera in the stands. But somehow manage to get the kill shot and the hunter releasing an arrow all in the same show. Editing.

Yes I now editing! But you think when it comes to recording the shot they can be more realistic. It would make it a better watch

I’m not 100% sure but I think these fellas were elk hunting in my area of operations. Many of my neighbors are less then impressed with them and are hoping they don’t come back.

Of course, the completely useless online subscription to Wild TV doesn't have this or any other episode a guy would like to watch...

Man, that host is terrible. Ugggghh! Will never watch it again that’s for sure.

I never would have taken the shot like that, but he did get it done so who am I to say...
