What would you like to see in a new, all traditional archery/bowhunting dvd?
-
I don't think you can go wrong with an all traditional hunting DVD
-
Kill scenes,done in good taste
-
I guess I would like to see the "truth". What I mean is everything, from the scouting, the stand/blind placements, to the hunt.
Shots that connect, and the ones that don't, the way it really is.
Just the way I see it.
-
Just what Scott J. Williams said... the truth.
The blood, sweat, tears and joy.
-
I would like to see ME in the Traditional bowhunting DVD..
Real hunters hunting in the real world.. Seen a lot of the outfitters hunts and would like to see John Doe hunting on State land
-
I'm with mysticguido. No outfitters ! I want to watch regular guys hunting on state or fedral land. No private ranches . The animals dont always have to be Trophys !

I agree!!!!!!!!!!!

No music. At all. Add bird noises if you, just no cheesy music!
-
lots and lots of good hard hunting.
-
I would like to see them take any animal they had tags for, does, smaller bucks, average deer like averaged hunters do and on public or small tracts fo private land, no guides, no fences, no game farms.
-
more small game hunts with a trad bow and real deer hunts for average deer
-
No "whispering" to the camera when in bow range of an animal.
-
Please no jumping up and down and high 5's. You've just taken an animals life and it is a time for thanks and quiet thoughts
-
I love seeing Fred Eichler jump all around when he shoots a animal. even the small half rack from CO. I think it was in Vol 1/2
REAL HUNTS>>>REAL HUNTERS>>>>REAL FREE ROAMING GAME>>>Need I say more
-
I think mysticguido nailed it for me. I would love to see a video that was done totally on state land that anyone with the appropriate license could duplicate. It would send a great message out to the younger, upstart hunters.
-
I want to hear all natural sounds, and see actual kill scenes. I like to see what equipment is used. I would like to see regular people hunting, both men and women.
-
Honest hunting no game farms no guides and no game if that is how it turns out on that day. Honesty.
-
I would like to see a really well done documentary style movie like "The life of mammals" by David Attenborough but maybe called "The life of trad hunters". Rock cams and hunter head cams with super slow motion arrow flight and kills. Filmed all over the world.
-
Little talking as possible. Polite narration is much more appealing.
I absolutely hate listening to people do commentary while whispering. It drives me nuts.
Please don't hock your wares over a dead animal its distgusting. When I see some guy say "Without Product X this wouldn't have been possible" over a dead animal, I think well that was just turned into porn.
I think the early Fred Bear Films are so awesome cause the hunters are almost never talking, selling or pimping anything. "Bowhunting October Whitetails" carried on that tradition and those films should be used as templates for all hunting productions in my opinion.

I'm feelin it all guys, thanks very much for the input. In my personal opinion Primal Dreams is the very best trad dvd i've ever seen in my time on this planet!!!!! I mean no offense to all the others who have trad dvds out, in fact i commend them for getting it out to the public. This is an unbelievablly big deal to get this done, as far as i'm learning, thus far. We expect to have something ready for the public in 2 years. I'm consulting the right folks to make sure that traditional archery/bowhunting is represented very favorably in the finished product. Sponsorship, some mentioned. If we get any sponsors they will only come from our traditional community. We are currently working on a media kit to present to potential traditional archery based sponsors, once we reach that point. Here is a peek at one component of that kit. I have written permission to use the pic, & it's a perfect fit for what we're trying to accomplish. Please keep the input coming, because this ultimately will be a dream realized by trad bowhunters, for trad bowhunters. Thanks, Dave Mullins.

I love music, but, in a hunting video I have yet to see a video where the music is perfect. I agree with a couple of posts that said, "no music", natural sounds only. That way when I can't be out there, I can feel like I am, almost. I have tried to put together a video of my own but I don't know what I'm doing. Lots of scenery footage and shooting. Need more hunting footage. I don't know how to edit.
-
I agree with most of what was already stated, about the whispering, music, variety, etc.
Primal Dreams did a good job on the music but I would like to see one with only natural sounds.
I would like to see more variety of animals, easy on the whitetails.
Maybe show what a hunter goes through in preparation of fall hunting starting back in, say , February and how all their gear and practice comes together when the animal steps out.
