My criticisms were valid in the sense that he doesn't need to post every shot he takes and he needs to consider this video can now be used in an anti-hunting propaganda film as evidence hunters don't care about the animals they take (and please don't take that to make it sound like Joseph doesn't care, I fully believe he does, but the celebration of such a shot on video can be construed and "manipulated" to say such tot he anti-hunting crowd) and hurt us all in the long run.

Yes, among friends, this video is nothing that needs to be watched twice (other than to critique it) but in a public space, this video does us hunters no favors.

And too your point the shot was 2 inches low, We were at 2,100 feet elevation and I had the ballistics in the scope for 700 feet elevation (back at home) which is about a 1.5" difference at 300 yards for that round.


Actually, higher elevation has the opposite effect.


It sounded good, though.

To someone of his intellect, anyway. Hell, he drove to a deer in a Jeep and called it a tough recovery. It seems to me that he started hunting a year or two ago, acquired some hunting heroes on tv, and is desperately trying with all his feeble might to be just like them. He’s like a 12 year old. I’d bet money he loves modern country, too. In fact, that’s what he reminds me of. He’s the young, up and coming Jason Aldean of hunting.

In the spirit of continuous improvement, IMHO, if I am going to watch (rarely) a hunting video, it will be to learn something or see some alternative terrain/animals/techniques/etc. Again, to me, it is more about the preparation, stalk, lessons learned, and experience. Just watching an animal through a scope for 20 seconds followed by a shot provides no education and honestly, I've seen plenty of animals shot through my own scope, so don't really need to see the same from someone else.

JTPpro, you are working to turn a hobby into an enterprise, and I get that and wish you the best, but expecting experienced hunters (like most here) to appreciate a simple kill shot is unrealistic, regardless if it is 259 yards or 259 feet. With that said, if there was a video where you identified a target buck, prepared by planting attractants through food plots, then showed the patience necessary by stalking/rattling/waiting for that perfect shot, I would be more inclined to view.

Agreed, And that is why we release full videos of our experiences, which people said on this forum they didn't want to see, and wanted to see the short kill shot only so that is what we post here.

Full videos of the story itself behind the hunt and after the shot are on the pursuit channel, and our Facebook page usually.

Thanks for your feedback. Hunting is much more than the trigger pull, there is a lot before and after the hunt.

Here is an example...

JT I the prior issues were more the length of videos, lots of sponsor infomercial type product pushing and less delving into the essence of the hunt itself. Also, the fast target acquisition, multiple shots fired sometimes and deer/hog non-fatal shots taken too. If your current expanded videos have corrected some of that I will take a look at them. The quick shots still seem a bit problematic for my taste. More steadying on the animal to be shot before shooting would go a long way for me, personally.

Second off, why would you Video that and put it online? You make a video every time you brush your teeth as well? Shooting a doe across a field shoot isn’t cause to post a video online, especially one like that.

Come on dude, act like you have been there before. Real hunters don’t want to see this, and non hunters damn sure don’t.

This whole charade you have going just reeks of immaturity.





This reply right here is spot on !!

What do you think of our latest episode? This is what just aired? You can skip thru the commercials 3 sets of 2 mins long per the network.

Gives a little more info on the set up, and leading into the actual trigger pulls.

Well we are all entitled to our opinions. As a person that grew up in the outdoors I find it as an eyesore and disgrace to the outdoors.

Why are you making episodes? Fillms? If you want to hunt just go hunt.... that's what its about, not some bs production movie or whatever your trying to make of it.

Different like in a one less ripe turd in the outhouse kinda way, yes, one only.

Portraying hunters in a good light / reasonable way, no.

Something about a monkey and a football fits well.

I guess this kind of episode doesn't portray them in a good way either?



And then man this one must make kids look like crap then too!



And then this one about predators also doesn't show respect then either...



And man it sure sucks to show people a change and do a fishing trip slamming stripers all day

Joseph, best thing to do is swallow your pride and listen.

That is all I am willing to say at this point.

Oh trust me I have a lot, the main reason my show has gotten to this point, and is still getting better. But some on here will never be happy. All I can do is say thanks for the views to those who like to complain about it.
