Its getting harder and harder finding anything worthwhile to watch on tv or online. I've started watching a few hunting shows the one I really like now is The hunting public a bunch of ordinary kids who mostly focus on hunting public lands. They don't always shoot a deer, they aren't jamming gear down your throat, they focus a lot on strategy and also focus a lot of footage on tracking wounded deer. I really enjoy the show and it can be found on Amazon and YouTube. I also like a show called dropped about two brothers getting dropped off in Alaska with only their hunting gear surviving for a month in the backcountry. I'm sure we've all dreamed doing something like this. What else is out there that you enjoy
You Tube is your Huckleberry. Good hunts from Marco Polo to coyotes. Modern equipment and editing make for lots of well done videos by regular folks all over the world.
The Hunting Public for sure. Also Shane Simpson, Dave Owens’ Pinhoti Project, Randy Newburg, The NaturalCalling. Leatherwood Outdoors is okay too. Some of these aren’t real sophisticated, but there’s a lot to learn.
Spomer is good to watch, though not always about hunting. For something different, try capand ball for black powder hunting with genuine antiques and replicas, plus BP target shooting. USOG is a collector with a lot of info on old and newer stuff, very low-key and seems like a really nice guy.
The Hunting Public just did a Walmart Challenge for turkey hunting. $99 Hatfield 12ga and Winchester lead ammo. Thrift-store camo. Less than $150 for a dead turkey, albeit a jake. Good stuff. Those guys are a hoot.
I go through a bunch of the no name people on YouTube. Deer hunts. Coyote hunts. Hog hunts. The ones in Australia are pretty neat. Running trucks or SUV's with moon roofs and the guys standing up through the roof with shotguns. Running cross country with a plane spotting the sounders.
I do not get many channels on the telly, but I would like to know if anyone has watched America's Most Wanted, with Kristy Lee Cook, her husband Lee Orr and a few others. They are some hard working folks but I know they most certainly push a lot of gear from sponsors. Probably a diva or two on there too, which is fine if they're Hot!
Jim Shockey Uncharted is the only one I'll watch anymore. The ones with the good looking gals are just using sex to sell a show. None of today's honeys can compete with Brenda Valentine.
I used to catch an earshot of it here and there while down there at the walmart ma in the core-lokt aisle. They’d have it on constant play mfers in a pup tent, sawing away on a slate call in the video. lol
I pretty much stick to YouTube hunting videos lately. Only exception being "Nick's Wild Ride" on cable. Wife and I both enjoy it. Decent and respectful to the locals, and he has a great sense of humor.
"Gun Stories", not really about hunting, but always interesting.

Born and Raised Outdoors , they do a five state 50 day archery elk hunt showing the good , bad and ugly . Pinhoti Project and as you mentioned the Hunting Public. All seem like down to earth guys I could share a hunt or two with.
Jim Shockey Uncharted is pretty good. He goes places not many other don't and isn't just popping whitetails out of a blind in front of a feeder.
Like his Yukon show a lot.
I have always liked Shockey, but have never seen his show, just snippets of his Yukon hunts. I would have loved to have worked up there in my younger years. I think I read where they pony their horses in 120 miles or some such thing.
Slumlord we need some Frog Gulag pics now!!! Are you guys talking about the Banned Catman529 from here on 24hr???? Didnt know he had a you tube channel..
I remember the hunting videos we watched in 80's. Unless you were watching Jim and Mutual of Omahas Wild Kingdom, you had to rent the videos. I was getting into bowhunting at the time and it was Fred Bear, Dan Fitzgerald (at least I think that was his name) and Noel Feather.

Jackie Bushman would haul his Polaris quad with Mossy Oak camo in the back of his Chevrolet pickup and drive to deer camp. He’d unload his Polaris quad with Mossy Oak camo at camp and drive it the 400 yards to his stand...wearin’ a Bell helmet with Mossy Oak camo...and cover it up with a Polaris Pursuit Camo field cover. Then he’d shoot a deer with a Thompson/Center Encore with Mossy Oak camo that was eating corn from a Moultrie feeder in front of his stand, load it up on his Polaris quad with Mossy Oak camo, and drive it back the 400 yards to camp and make out what a great hunter he was.
Big bucks are the norm, whether WT or Muley. Real hunts for monster bucks by Cody and his wife, Kelsey.
Ha, turns out the huge dead buck wasnt Sleepy after all, and the hunt for him was back on.
I think he got his start as Shockey’s cameraman years ago. I’ve got a subscription to MOTV and have watched (or tried) to watch many. There’s a few I just can’t stand to keep on but there’s quite a few that beat out the crap on regular tv
The first hunting show I remember watching, was way back when we first got satellite TV. Dean Durham, from Georgia, I believe. He was a big believer in the grunt call, that's mostly what I remember.

Hornady Dark and Dangerous and Tracks Across Africa are my top two. Jim Shockey when he hunts exotic overseas places like Pakistan and Iran are a close third.
Meat Eater. He is mostly DIY, honest and ethical. Also, he illustrates the entire process. Hunt, kill, process and eat with pride. Yes he has sponsors and so what. At least he isn't gut shooting deer with a bow or "hunting" pre-prepared animals.
I can remember Curt Gowdy and Phil Harris duck hunting with Bing Crosby on the "American Sportsman." But if you were a kid in Kansas you NEVER missed the "Sportsman's Friend" with Harold Ensley. He was DA MAN. From quail hunting in the south to fishing the Lake of the Woods. In a bright red Ford Country Squire.

Who had the fishing show in the 80s that would show blooper reels of the guy falling out of the boat? That one was pretty entertaining. Guy wasn't afraid to poke fun at himself anyway.

Bill dance.
He’s gotta been making shows for close to 40 years.
