Not only did I not watch it, but I unsubscribed to THP when I saw the title. But, now you have piqued my interest. I sure hope you’re right and he was making fun of that group. Thanks

What’s wrong with hunting suburbs?

For a time i had property to hunt that abutted a bunch of suburban subdivisions with greenspace scattered throughout.

That spot had by far the biggest bucks i’ve had the privelege to hunt and they most definitely were NOT pushovers or easy to hunt in any way. Those Bucks were as cagey as any i’ve hunted anywhere.

There has to be more to the story. You just dont up and sell your dream whitetail property on a whim.

I found some comments from him on his Ask Winke section on his website. Apparently he tried all year to buy property closer to his parents and couldn't find anyone that would sell what he was interested in. He ended up leasing some property (NE Iowa) and killed a dandy at the end of October. Sounds like he scouted a bunch of state land and will eventually do something else hunting related but he hasn't filmed all year and that seems to me what he was tired of. He didn't sell his property on a whim, he wants to be closer to his parents, and his family just bought a house near where they are.

I don't think he's done killing big deer, but it seems like he's done filming it. I can certainly understand doing that but selfishly it sucks. Finding his content in college is what really started my obsession.

Outdoor55 - not really hunting but knife sharpening so it's related
Chris Bee - I read some of the gripes, I'll have to go back and watch those. I like his archery content

I watched a lot of those "big name" hunting shows on TV back in the 90's and early 2000's, and they just always felt canned and scripted to me. What I like so much about THP is it seems genuine. So do pretty much all of those on the list. There are episodes in which they don't kill or sometimes don't even see anything. Didn't see that too often on Bill Jordon's Real Tree Outdoors, et al. They ALWAYS killed a monster.

Meat Eater is just well produced, and I like Rinella. He's hunting things I never will, and I enjoy watching it. I also like that he always has the cooking aspect in the show. It has made me much more interested in becoming a better cook of the wild game I kill.

Elk Shape is great for the fitness coaching. I've been incorporating a lot of the archery-specific workouts he posts into my workout routines. Been an athlete all my life, and lots of old injuries are catching up to me. The older I get, the more I need it. I want to be doing this for a long time.

The only one that seems particularly "commercial" to me is Nock On. Dudley is certainly selling product. But his archery content is great, and maybe I'm a sucker, but he seems genuine to me. The only thing of his I own is a Silverback release, and I don't have any fluorescent green on anything. Lol.
 
Born and Raised is great. Anyone who watches THP, you have to watch Aaron's SAGA to shoot an Elk. This is the first episode.
