Shooting books and shows

Post by wrenchman » 07 Jun 2014, 12:41 am

One of the things I like to do is read books on hunting and on guns and I watch many shows even though I watch them on you tube it as what led me here.

Are there any local out door shows you guys watch on YouTube? One of our local shows is Michigan out door TV. It's a weekly show.

I like to read books like jack o conners gun book and Elmer Keith hell I was there and death in the long grass by peter cap stick.

Many of these guys are greats here are there any books from local authors that would be good reading.

Not really any hunting/shooting shows here to speak of, wrenchman.

There have been 1 or 2 over the years but they haven't lasted long.

Mostly reviews and fun shows on the stuff we can't have here.

Hickok45, FPS Russia, those sort of ones.

The guys from Moss Pawn & Guns do a few good ones.

Gotta say a couple of stupid comments come out now and then (in my opinion) but overall it's pretty good.

8541 are good.

They're one of the few guys that do what I'd actually call a review. Not just saying "Yeah so this is the X scope, it's pretty good. Hope you enjoyed the video." :roll:

So many of them are such a waste of time. They're good though.
