“And thats why we go to high country” slow voice. More like that’s why we stroke a big check to hunt in private.

lol my daughter loves falling asleep to his hunting videos! That and these asmr cooking videos.
Mahtzinger is one of the problems. Like meat eater. Can't blame them. They making money. They hunt cook with a guide. Or more than likely private. At least randy misses a dream 6 in AZ 
. Hunts with friends. Or shoots a dink. Best thing randy could do is be more real. Challenge u old man.

I watch several shows but many I can't stomach. This is my 36th year guiding elk hunts so feel it is important to keep up with some things pertaining to western big game. I don't have TV so Youtube is my only venue. I haven't hunted big game for myself for years and I have a farm in Idaho with over the counter tags for us residents. When I have time upland hunting is what draws me outside. The way Montana structures its seasons, it is more susceptible to being ruined by media exposure. As for Steven, his shows have changed. Good or bad is not for me to judge- that is for the sponsors!

We watch a fair bit of meateater and Randy’s show. Finding shows that work for the 6,10, and 40 year old men in my house, requires a window of acceptability that both of those fall into. To me it’s mostly just background noise.
I am no longer fired up by hunting media at all. Though, I love and feel connected to the conservation stories. I suppose that’s one way I’m different than the masses. That said, My boys are drawn to those shows in the same way I was drawn to Dick Proenneke. Its reality TV sure, but it’s adventure and I feel either are good content for kids.
I’ve always hunted in shitty and unpopular spots and will continue to. Dead lodgepole ain’t good for filming.
At the foundation of all of this, and something that would alleviate it and render the influencer effect far less potent, would be Montana stepping up and drastically changing our season structure. Happy to support the folks putting their ideas out there.

Wolves are so Y2K.
Eric album the outfitters and private should be just honest with what they want for mule deer. No doubt mule deer thrive where u own and outfit but they don't where I can hunt. There is common ground there. It's outfitters landowners public hunters working together. My opinion land owners deserve tags. Outfitters yes. It's a business. But protected private protects the public. Makes it better. But LE draw. Mule deer. The landowners that don't participate out in the cold.

All I have to say, there is good and bad with the coverage of western hunting.
I really don't care for the flood of bro hunters for all kinds of reasons, they seem to take up hunting because of the influencers. Unfortunate, but is what it is.
The plus side, and I give Rinella a ton of credit, without his efforts and support on corner crossing, it flat wouldn't be in the 10th circuit right now. No question about that.
While nearly every other influencer was hiding under the bed, he had it all over his platform.
Meateater is a very large part of why we've had the $$$ to try the corner crossing case. While it's the individual donors that paid the money, his reach and influence grabbed a lot of attention and drew in the donors.
Most recently, $75k+.
There are no perfect answers, but I'm in debt to Rinella and meateater for not being afraid to take a position and give corner crossing it's day in court. This was not an issue supported by most any other influencer or NGO.
In fact, if anything, many ran static on corner crossing, including groups that claim to support public access to public lands. That surprised me.

Well I never said he was a bad guy - just that he kinda screwed up the buffer zone draw odds More than they already were. Good to hear about his generosity to that cause.

Not to mention the money he dumps into conservation every week. All from a board game. Not a fan of him blowing up units but there’s a lot he does right IMO.
