The fake edit is pretty much why I don't watch hunting shows

Hunting shows are, by and large, horrible. It is almost like they are designed for non hunters as opposed to seasoned hunters. I can't stand the cheesy fake camaraderie. And the cut in shots of the finger on the trigger....that sort of stuff makes my skin crawl.

How many videos of turkeys coming to decoys can people really watch? I think WP will be the first to admit that for the genre to survive, they are going to have to change their angle. It has to be more about telling a story. Conservation, culture, stewardship, education, etc.

Hour after hour of body counts gets old in a hurry.
