I've got the basic Dish package. They want you to upgrade to their 250 channel package to get it, an additional expense of $25/month for me. I'd sure like to get it ala carte, but they will not sell The Sportsman's Channel that way. I would love to see it, but I guess I'm going to have to miss it. They are already into my pocket way too deep already.
I agree. That is why I do not have it.Quote:

If it don't come Over The Air from Memphis, Jonesboro, or from the mail box I ain't gettin it.
This is how poor people roll.:biggrin Ya'll probably don't know what the box is on top.

I thought it was a pretty good show. It hit me pumped for the tree bite. Come on Spring!
Not much fishing with a lot of commercials I thought but that's just my opinion.
Unfortunately this is most hunting and fishing shows.Quote:

Him driving his wrapped truck and telling us a little more about where he is going, filmed from the passenger pillar camera. Him stopping at Sonic, cause, "You know, they make a good burger". Him pulling out of Sonic and back on the road...queue the footage out the truck window of scenery going by. Him arriving, shaking hands, introducing the lodge and guide, him and guide go in lodge. They poring over map of area, discussing tomorrow's strategy. Him getting up and eating a breakfast big enough to make me have to go back to bed and take a nap. Get in UTV (does anyone still hunt ON FOOT like I do anymore?) and travel to boat/stand, being sure to keep four-acre high fence out of the shot. Shot of dialogue in stand, cause nothing is moving. O wait...there's one now. ALWAYS, doe comes out, followed by junior bucks. Footage of all feeding in food plot costing more than the UTV. Then, shooter buck show up, shot is taken, high fives, "Now that is whut I wuz talkin' about!" Maybe footage of fake following blood trail for carcass, but you know they already found him. Carcass found. More high fives. Thanks to our sponsors, y'all need to come here, phone number and website is right there on the bottom of the screen, thanks for watchin', see you again next week. ALL of the above interspersed with ten hundred and eleventy minutes of sponsors commercials. Do I have it down or whut?Quote:

Sure you aren't already a hunting show producer?Quote:

I hunt two months+ out of the year on the road in midwest without a camera and I couldn't imagine doing anymore!
Great show as always!! Lots of hard work to make it happen!! Keep up the good work krappie king TV!!
Thanks Tony, I know now what these videos that we been making are messing. Lol. I gave up cable about a year and half ago, I figured I could use that 100 bucks a month more wisely. Do miss them channels.
Please, don't get me wrong, there are many well-produced outdoors shows that I would like to watch and did watch when I was younger and had the disposable income to chose to live large with all the channels. There are also many that are quite amateur in nature, and that in itself is great for a good laugh. I do not doubt you in your assertion that it is quite a challenge to pull off a great show. However, it is obvious to reasonable minds that many of these shows lack significant content. Show me 20-22 minutes of fishing. Show me the same of hunting. Don't show me footage of the final approach and landing at the Casper, Wyoming airport followed by footage of host picking up his luggage off the luggage conveyor. That is not why I am watching. I timed a few of them: it is 9-11 minutes into the show before the subject matter is experienced. Tell a story, sure, but tell me a hunting or fishing story with hunting and fishing in it within the first five minutes. That's not too much to ask is it? When the brain trust that kicks our campfire tells a hunting or fishing story, we don't begin with, "Well, there I was, standing in my foyer, bags packed, about to go on a great adventure." After fifty your priorities change and you think about eating cat food in your eighties. So you don't buy the channels, and save for retirement. That, and quite frankly, the over-commercialization of what in my youth was an time-honored family ritual and tradition. We went deep into the woods, cut trees to make a frame for clear poly walls off a roll, particle board roof with tar paper, bunks built inside, and that was the lodge. No ATVs, they had not been invented yet, you walked and still hunted your deer, not even climbing stands yet. You got to take the day off from school on opening day of squirrel season. And we ate them and wanted more. Squirrel and squirrel gravy over biscuits at 5am in squirrel camp on a cold, crisp fall morning around the camp fire? It doesn't get much better than that. But you're not going to find that on any outdoor show these days. Lifestyle advertizing was the Remington or the Winchester catalog you got at the hardware store when you bought your shells, not 10-12 commercials in a 30 minute segment. I remember a more minimalist experience, void of all of the products on these commercials. We liked it that way. So please excuse the musings of an old man.
Reading these Loooooong posts is like watching a hunting or fishing show.Quote:
