I thought it would be interesting to hear how ya'll would break down hunting scenes from different movies.

 
Not sure about that but I did see (again) a silly blooper in an old black and white movie based on a Hemingway story, The Macomber Affair the other night. In the scene where the PH, Gregory Peck is finishing off the lion that the client ran away from :eek:you see the lion get rolled, Peck is shooting away and a closeup of the lion shows at least one arrow or short spear sticking out of it as it rolls over.o_O
 
He made some great calls on critter behaviour. From that you can tell he has actually hunted. Thanks for posting.
 
Steve Rinella's commentary is always amusing. For those who don't know, he's the host of the Meateater Show, available on My Outdoor TV and YouTube. All about hunting in the USA and using all parts and meat off an animal.

Thanks for sharing.
 
Rinella is my personal favorite hunting personality as he has none of the braggadocio other presenters have. In English, he's a total bro.
 
A little inconsequential info. An interesting part of the book “White Hunter” told of all the work PHes had to do for the old movies. They were pushed by the studios to get animals to charge the actors and then drop the animal in just the right spot. Pretty foolish at times according to the PHes. I can certainly understand their view!
Excellent book if anyone hasn’t read it. It also comes as an audio book for traveling.

And didn’t in one of those movies they actually shoot an elephant for the opening scene. Then they took a break from filming and several hours later the skinners came out to do their job and there was no elephant. The book White Hunters is an amazing book!

White Hunter was the second book I listen to after booking my first Safari the first one was into Africa which was also a good listen!

may I suggest Intaba Safaris in the East Cape by Port Elizabeth, Eugene is a great guy, 2 of us will be there April 6th to April 14th. he does cull hunts(that's what I am doing) and if you go to his web site he is and offering daily fees of 200.00 and good cull prices. Thanks Jim
Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
Very inquisitive warthogs
