Anyone else heard this? Its bad enough they are no longer doing the hunting show for TV but now no more hunting videos? Blasphemy if you ask me, looks like they need to look in the mirror when they are hating on the yuppies.

FYI Not a huge fan of the show, reality TV sucks.

I like the show, it's getting a little stupid now though. Their hunting videos were 100x better than the show ever was. They better not stop making them.

It's already bad enough their clothing is now $14,000 for a jacket. This is just the tipping point for me.

I did have a really awesome down DC jacket made by Browning. Now that UA is making their stuff, even the shirts are like $90

Think they're getting too big for their own good. Wife was just saying she read where they're in a contract dispute for the show. Saying they want more money per episode and aren't budging on the price. No, I don't have a link.

What shirts are you talking about?

I bought one not long ago for around $15.

I thought Academy started carrying there cloths? Maybe that was Drake, dont buy either so it doesn't really matter.

Diff think they are getting to big of heads. The show is cool and all but they should not get away from what made them. The videos and cloths are more to thank than the calls by a long shot imho.

Yeah, heard today they're asking $200k/episode. Not sure of the validity of that though.

I am thinking Phil has giving all control over to Willy, I have a hard time seeing him being okay with the direction the company is going. Getting bigger is good and I am all for getting your $ but there will come a time when they start pushing the people away that made them.

I really hope this isnt' true. I've always loved the story of the company and have been a fan of their videos, their calls, and most of the stuff they did for years. I'd hate to see them just become another group of sell outs.

I've had a couple of their calls.

Their wood duck call is probably the best one I've ever used.

Some of their cheaper, $20 calls are about as good as they come for the money too. I have a tripple threat and you can not make that thing squeak even if you tried. Great call when you need to blow as loud as you can.
