tim, one of the things i tried to get across in my last post was that i place sole blame for this on the History Channel. i am very greatful to kevin for throwing this opportunity our way. he and mr. mason did not have to do that. and i have no doubt that the end result for us was not what they expected it to be. and it was very cool to get to see you guys going through your part of the show. but hunting in general got slighted in favor of the History Channel's formula for Monsterquest, which really doesn't include hunting other than short sparse re-inactments involving hunters. we gave them some real footage man, i'm here to tell you i was there. and not just the rougher type stuff you wouldn't expect them to show, but the whole baying, and the dogs keeping the hog trapped, and the hog and dogs swimming in the river. all exciting stuff that i would have killed to have in my own video library had i only had and been able to use my own camera. then there is the complete embarrasement of having been led to believe it was okay to tell family, friends and peers that we would be well represented. and there are few things that burn my ass more than being made to feel foolish through no fault of my own. mike truley said it best, "The History Channel dropped the ball on this one. but we don't fault anyone but them for that move.
