This may be true in some cases, but many of the sponsorships are 100% legit and honest and they make it so that some really great keepers can produce good quality videos. Traveling, having the proper equipment, spending the time to film and produce these shows takes time and money. I totally agree that some of these videos are total crap, the people making them have little knowledge and are only looking for an ego boost. But there are some really good guys out there, like Brian Kusko, that are doing videos for the right reasons and supporting them is a positive thing for the community.
Just wanted to give another perspective on it, looking at it from the side of the people who are doing videos the right way and for the right reasons![]()
