Yes, im sure with one good chace to arrow some large game to keep you fit yer filming yourself draw down on the animal off ground. Im mean i like lookin at Cunnuckistan green water too but im a realist not realitiest. Cmon man! Dont be a dog faced pony Soljah!
I like show as much as Orange County Choppers. I realize they Hollywood amped OCC prolly less than this thing. It was good and so was Jesse James on HistoryDiscovery. Not tryin to pee on the History Channel Panther Party just keepin it in perspective. Its all gud until til get mortared or T72 main gun fire in my book.

GlisGlis:
that's why many shot scenes (big and small animals) look recorded after the real kill.
they shot the prey and after that they film the missing sequence for the show.
In my opinion that's quite evident but I'm a notorious dog faced pony Soljah

Yer comin around Glis. Not yer talkin Hollywood. When yer starving do you think you have time to set up or rather Stage hunt scenes? Or do you go cut the warm kidneys and liver out and get some warm iron rich food? Lets agree that its good Thurs nite High ball entertainment, reality based eye candy. Give you a face, a story, and you pick yer underdog and ride him or her til hunger and cold start scratching the backbone from the inside. Then, the ol Sat phone comes out.
Think about it. If you call base camp and they come in two hours, how far are they away? across lake. Maybe they have several camps to access to Reality game show contestants as they are layed out on the ground. If that is so they must have a purty big footprint. Flying in, boating in, etc etc. If you really need a jump on the Game, why not just do an 48hr Op on the camp, get what ya need and pack back to yer hooch.
Seen it many many times. When yer doing 20-22hr Ops for weeks on end with one meal a day it will take you down a rung. That's with no shelter and nothing but what on yer back and in a ruck. The Idea that your doing this to yourself and can tap any time is what is very hard for the weak of heart. I literally have run thousands of men thru this training. After awhile you can see very quickly under duress who can function, fight, lead and win and who cant. I have seen sh!t that'll boogle yer mind at 0300hrs on a hit in the Mts or desert. Most men have no comprehension what they are physically capable of and often its what is or is not between there ears that wins the day, the battle, the war.
Its a game show. Perspective.

Eric Krewson:
I always wondered about all the talking on hunting shows, I thought their deer were a lot dumber than N Bamma deer that would be over the next hill if they heard a mouse squeak.
One guy fessed up that they don't make a sound during the actual hunt and re-shot the "kill scene" with all the dialog later.
PaulN/KS:
I've been following along with this discussion and I have friends that are big fans of the show as well.
For me though, all these "reality" show/contests remind me too much of that movie "The Running Man"... ???
