With our unique species, beautiful country side, able out doors ppl - why hasn’t someone grabbed a camera man and put together a professional hunting show that could be worth millions of dollars away from main stream media ?
Yes, it takes a lot of work - field, pre production, post production, marketing, etc - but in the scheme of setting up a business, something like this would be far from expensive - and id bet my left one that over seas markets would lap it up to the nth degree...

You live in a country where the Government deliberately closes down firearms manufacturer's and the MSM actively reminds the populace that " Guns are Bad Makay. ". Hopefully this attitude will be eventually voted out. Why did Bertram and Woodleigh go to the USA?. It's really, really, sad Tassie considering what the attitudes of Australians towards guns and hunting were in the 60's and 70's. Even the bloody Pom's are cool with sustainable harvesting. Anyhoo maybe I am wrong.

The thinking then was to present the program as a field to table cooking show with a 40/60% content. 40% the hunt, 60% the prep and cooking, leaving out the gorry bits. The hunting content could be increased, but you would still need to show the purpose/reason for the hunt.

As for aussie hunter show...Maybe its about time marksman had a film crew follow him about the place, & set up an overhead camera or two in his shed & kitchen.
