I would strongly disagree. Some of the hunts are that because that's the way yanks hunt whitetail and even sika.

I really don't see that the hunts are canned, they do some pretty extreme stuff

hey don't get me wrong I like the programme but when you see footage of people shooting from blind with a bail of hay outside and deer feeding on it that just isn't my cup of tea, granted the rest is pretty good and yes he has some great values and a great sense of humour all in all the show is pretty well done.
I also didn't really like the leopard hunt in I think it was the last season and you can't argue that was a baited hunt no other way to put it.

My point isn't that they aren't baited or lured hunts, it's that in the areas he partakes in these hunts that is the prevalent hunting culture.

He isn't choosing to do a lured hunt because he wants to up his chances of a kill, but merely because those hunts are representative of the area and species.

For much of America, hunting a small plot of land from a tree stand with some sort of lure or crop to attract animals is the only easily accessible hunt.

I don't see it as 'canned' hunting at all.
