Don't know about all that, seems like a short story with little to no conclusion, kinda the same story I have read a few hundred times before....
I do like the fact that it portrayed one of "us" in a positive light....and that person happens to be a friend so that is always cool too Grin

Seriously.....I agree with Matt. Didnt have much of a conclusion but it did show Mike and the type of hunting in a positive manner.

Bump,

    Now that you mention it, I have noticed Mike has this air about him....At first I thought he was just gassy, but now I realize it might be something else Grin

     I read the article, and I thought it might have been the summary...kept looking for more. It's the Atlantic, not Reader's Digest

Well, i'm kind of disappointed. We hunted hard for three days on 5 different properties... finally caught a hog a three hours before his flight. A lot happened during those three days... not to mention that Chris, Mandi and Matt were not even mentioned in the article. But it wasn't the writer's fault, the editors at the Atlantic have the final say in what gets printed. I'm sure Malcom had a very lengthy, detailed article written. We read one of Malcom's articles on the hog problem in Missouri... very long and detailed. But, he's also the editor of that publication.

I'd like to thank Krystal Rohan, Uglydog, for sending him my way... she was contacted by Malcom in the beginning. We were a little hesitant to do the article at first, but after talking to and reading his writing's... we decided to do it.

Matt, Sean and I already flimed with The History Channel for Monster Quest. Unfortunately, they didn't show any hunting footage on the final production!

Mike, I am glad Malcom turned out to be one of the "good" reporters and gave it a fair shake. Even though the article did not mention the rest of ETHD crew, it was still painted in a positive light. I think when someone mentions ETHD, Mike Bolen, or any Chris, Mandi, Sean,or Matt that everybody knows "yall are ETHD", cause thats how yall roll!

I knew yall did a piece for the history channel....It is a shame they didnt use the ETHD crew in the documentory.

If I remember right they used some jake leg...who owns another website that walks around with his head up his place I would like to put my foot and no sense. That is the most G rated opinion as I can think of at the moment Tongue  or maybe I am thinking of Pig Bomb

Either way....you are going mainstream.....remember us little guys... Grin

All kidding aside....thought it was a good article and cast a good light on hog doggers!

 Shocked


Thats a good article. If I am lucky, I might be able to talk Mike into signing my Quick Trak 6000 reciever that he sold me, before he moves to the ''Hills''  Grin

On a serious note, yall sure do a good job of representing this sport in a positive light.
