Phil robertson

Just finished watching the show on tv.

What a stupid show. Defenetely lost respect for them boyz, and regretting having bought tapes from them 10 years ago.
What a stupid pathetic show.
Of course they are killin ducks, they are sittin on a waterfowl managed, flooded 1600 acres private land, in the middle of the best mississipi flyzone you can find.
These guys are just in for the money.
And this show is the least reality you can find, all fixed and the show has 4 writers and 2 producers.....pathetic....
Plus their sense of humor are way below par.
Willie Robertson is an American entrepreneur, reality TV star and CEO who has a net worth of $20 million. Willie Robertson’s family founded the company “Duck Commander” which is a multi-million dollar business specializing in the manufacture of a variety of popular hunting related products such as duck decoys, duck calls, cooking DVDs and apparel. Willie and his family were recently was tapped to star in their very own A&E reality show “Duck Dynasty” which airs Wednesday nights at 10pm. Willie runs Duck Commander alongside his dad Phil, brother Jase, mother Miss Kay, uncle Si and wife Korie.

Started by living poor

Lived off the land most of his life.

Turned himself over to the Lord

Invented a duck call from scratch.

Anybody that puts God first and hunts ducks is a good man in my book.


on a side note, Ive met him quite a few times...once got to work with him and sit down to personally talk for about an hour...a great man to talk to, seems to have a great heart, and once again puts God first. Nothin to hate about in my opinion.

Im not hating, just dont like greedy people.

The post is titled "Phil Robertson"

Greedy and phil don't go together...in my opinion.

Now as for Willie..that could be a different story.

I agree

I'm not sure what is greedy about a man that has risen from the ashes of poverty and turned his way of life and passions into a lucrative business.

I admire the man and wish I could be as successful making money doing something I love as Phil has been. I call that living the dream and hardly greedy.

The show is corney but entertaining.

.

Sour grapes...good folks doing what they do best. They have done what any hunter wishes they could do, good at their style of hunting, worked hard at it and God Bless em, making a fine living at it. Just wish my last name was Robertson and hunting with em. They are living the dream we all wish we could just be along for the ride...and in a way we are by watching them hunt. May as well put all hunting/fishing tv celebrities on your list. Best advice, dont watch em if they irritate ya.

This really rubs me the wrong way...you are pretty much saying anyone that works hard/smart and is successful is now greedy. This kind of thinking is what's wrong with America now.

I think the show is hilarious. My favorite on the show is Si's cup.

Don't quote me on this but I thought I read somewhere that Phil was tired of doing all the tv shows cause of all the camera stuff going on. Pretty sure it's Willie pushin that whole deal

Really.............

It is Just a TV Show, It is not like when I was a Kid and you only had 5 Channels, if you held the Rabbit Ears just right.
You could only watch the Rockford Files so much.

If you dont like whats on, Flip over to the Sportsman Channel or Outdoor Network, Cooking Channel, MMA Fighting, Something. You have hundreds to choose from

Love the Last name.

Which i did.
Rip
I rest my case and enforce my fifth.

Enforce or invoke?

Sounds like we have a jealousy issue.

Don't worry, the government will soon be by to take his fair share and give it to people who don't do squat to improve their own lives. He must have surely done someone wrong to get all that money, no way it was from hard work and intelligents

My wife and I love the show. That's what it is a show. I think it's pretty funny.

I don't see a thing wrong with a man that has gone out into the world and made a living. Seems to be a hard working man that takes the time to raise a family the right way. I don't see them as greedy at all. I admire them all and cheer them on. Is the show a little cheesy, probably! If you open a blind eye there really is a good message and it seems to always focus on family. Nothing wrong in my eyes.

I actually like the show i didnt think it would be that much but its pretty cool IMO

I think the show is funny as heck, even if it is a little dumb. Phil is a selfmade man, good for him. Whats wrong with them hunting managed private lands? Ever go on a guided hunt Beaversnipe?

+1

Yep jealousy can do evil things to a man. Are you saying you wouldnt hunt that land because it's highly managed, private, and in an amazing location? If your answer is yes you are lying to yourself. As far as the show being a little corny, it is, but it has to be appealing to everyone including the non hunting community to get ratings.

There are a couple of things about the show I don't like. First, there ain't enough duck killin' goin' on, but that isn't the intent of this show for sure. Second, Willie is the center of it all NOT Phil. Kinda minimizes Phil's success to me.

(In my best Si impression): But hey... hey, what do I know. Hey, its still a funny show and hey... I watch it.

I agree...a show based upon religion beliefs and family values belongs no where on TV

I wish they killed more ducks but I think/hope they will get to that...killing ducks is a lot of hard work (when you don't pay a guide to kill them) and I hope they are just showing us that even though season isn't open they still work on a lot of the prep stuff.

beaver you just made the weekly THF forum edition of c'mon man...

we understand you don't like the duckmen or their show. Really your post is narrow minded, mostly incorrect imo, and overly critical. Usually when someone goes through the effort to publicly criticize, they wind up making themselves look worse than the person or people they are criticizing.

I'll say this forum is a great place for us to learn form one another, share ideas, and debate the issues of our day.

Thank you for your opinions even though I disagree with them. Maybe you will come around to our way of thinking one day.

Perhaps all those years of putting God first in their lives has paid off for them with God's blessings. I don't know. But they are a rarity in our age those who when given a public platform promote God's message of salvation.

btw, I have not seen the show and don't know if they mention their faith on it or not, but I have seen many of the dvd's in which they do. I'm also aware of the many speaking engagments many of the duckmen appear at each year in which they do promote their faith in God.

Capitalism vs European socilism.

Some people forget that their vision of greed is why we have efficiency and technological advancements and they would rather stone a man for trying to provide a legacy for their descendants then to devise and act on a plan that would do the same for their own descendants

I don't think Phil likes all the cameras being around him. I can't say I blame him that seems like it would be pretty frustrating

They are good people making a honest buck!

You must be jealous!

x2

Don't you have some money?

Pot calling the kettle?

You probably won't see much duck killing on it. They still want to sell hunting DVD. More of that greedy capitalism

For me the show is great the way it is...if I want to watch highlight reels of guys shooting ducks there are plenty of those shows. Honestly I quit watching those shows a long time ago...I'd rather just hunt than watch someone hunt. It's not like sports where they do things I could never do like throw a 98mph fastball...I can shoot a duck just as good as the guys on TV...granted they probably have better spots.

I'm watching their replays right now on the internet.

I love their show. Who doesn't like to be around
funny folk. My wife watched an episode the other
night with me and she was laughing too... I hope
their show lasts a long time.


.

I still like watching hunting shows cuz I like to see the differences in duck hunting in other parts of the country/world. What kind of setup, techniques, number and types of ducks, that kind of stuff.

Duck Commander is a business. Business' have a goal of making money. Duck Commander is a good business.

You think that's greed? There's a place for people with those views, I think it's over on the west coast. I hear they're having some economic trouble for some strange unknown reason though.

I think i saw on another forum where someone had a tattoo of phil on his back...

he was hard core internet fowler i hear, he was backed by a Hog,bigfoot,a bull, and a radio star..

i use blackcloud because phil does

How many people would buy Black Cloud without the beard on the box?

(prolly ruffle some feathers, but I find Xpert still kills 'em dead)

WOW...is modesty something you work on or does it come natural?

FYI, the day you think you know everything you quit learning anything...





I know that isn't what you meant but the way it read and came off

hey Taylor, it was Judd that had that DC tattoo, now look at him going after your boy marc.

kinda like an inkpen stuck up a hawgs behind

Going after? He typed it not me....oh and read the fine print, I was just screwing with him.

FYI...don't put me on the highschool stuff level please.

watch your back Judd, I dont take no lip from no DC duck caller blower

RNT single reed FOR LIFE!!!

i understand everyone is entitled to their opinion...but if you can't find humor in that show you are taking yourself and life too seriously. Sit down with a glass of sweet tea, grab your wife and kids and gather around the tv. Enjoy the show for what it is. At least you won't hear a sh*t load of cursing, you won't see them doing anything other than what rednecks love to do...

Relax and don't be so critical of everything. Trust me, it could be worse.



Anyone that has a business is in it for money. If you don't make money, you don't have a business. Phil got it started, and Willie is pushing it to be more sucessful, to reach different levels....and provide them a lifestyle in which everyone of us wishes we had.


The show is funny. I'll keep watching. In fact I can't wait until they release this season on dvd, I'll get it for my pops for Christmas and I'll watch it with the whole family during the Christmas holidays

Yeah I think you do know what I mean there Judd. Sure there is tons I can learn but I'll learn it in the field....you really can't learn much from watching those shows...if they actually talked more strategy in hunting shows I'd probably watch them more....but they are 95% highlight reels.

And I'll stand behind what I said about shooting them just as good. To me the act of actually shooting the duck is the easiest part of the hunt that takes the least amount of experience and that's what they are showing the most of. Being able to shoot good doesnt really translate to being able to know where, when, how to set up to have a good hunt.

Little harsh I think. I like the show and don't think their greedy at all. Just some good ol boys who struck gold with what they do. Hard work and a little luck, but not greedy. Their doing exactly what they love to do, providing for their children, and having a good time doing it. Good for them.

These people are my hero's. I would give anything to be able to wear camo everywhere, grow an awesome beard, and hunt for a living. They are living the American dream and the last thing in the world they are is greedy, funny as hell, but not greedy.

I think Si and Jase are the two funniest on the show. I think If I was to hang around those two I could probably manage to get myself into a whole lot of meaningless trouble.

Uhm...
This legislation is socialism, not capitalism anymore, where u've been the last 4 years????

No offense...

In that case, Phil for president!!!

But lets admit the show is dumb though....or lets not...
Who cares

Did not mean to get y all ruffed up....
As long as y all dont force me to
watch lamar odom and the kardashians!

What do yall say we doglpile beaversnipe for a little while. It aint duck season and we need something to do, so why not?

Do me a favor, name any other show that you can watch that doesn't have cussing, sexual references, especially homosexual references, talks about God, focus' on family, and ends each episode with a prayer surrounded by family.... Oh, and they have some duck hunting in it too...

I'll take it.

Amen!

I like what luckyducker said. In fact, this may be the finest show on TV right now.

"I'm runnin low on my gluten. What do you have for that?" How about a kick in the pants! -- Jase

Beaversnipe, is Phil's hatred for beaver the reason you started this thread?

"When you see a truck stuck in a field, you know what happened liberation!"--Jase

Haha that's good

Well if his handle was something like duck buster or crow killer he wouldn't have any trouble with Phil and the show, but since his name is a combo of beaver and snipe two thing I'm sure they kill every chance I guess it's made him a little nervous and insecure

AMEN BROTHER PREACH THE WORD!!!

I think your beaversnipe is hurting. Take some



then use this



and calm down.

We'll get you through to early Teal and everything will be ok.

You insult the duckmen you insult hopedale

Yep!

There I alot to say about a man (Phil) who turns down a professional football career because it interferes with duck season.
As a beginning duck hunter 16 years ago I actually learned alot from his toturial videos.
And after watching him preach I would say he is a A+ guy in my book! Everyone should check out his preaching videos on YouTube.

I rest my case

I love it when y all take it on beaver



Great country to be in


Thats why i migrated overhere


J adore

Keep on replying, i get paid per response, just like on youtube, just need couple millions more

On another note...

Now that i finally have all of y alls attention, on a good note, but most of y alls on a bad note, but i know its not all meant, or mayby it is , but i dont care...

Y all know a good place to hunt pigeons?

I pay 100 $ per day.

Serious inquires only

I guess yall were a little hard on the beaver last night

OH my stomach hurts Sad thing is the young ones won't get that referrence

Thats ok, the beaver can take a little pounding now and then.

He can handle it.


Rip, leave it to the beaver.

pounding

I remembered Beaversnipe is from another country. not sure if they showed "Leave it to beaver" where he is from or not. So don't take that post too serious beaversnipe it is from a sitcom from way back in the day.

They have tv s in europe as well....

Well did they show Leave it to Beaver?

Yes, but translated in french, which sucked.

Geat, now i have to change my name to beaverswipe instead of beaversnipe....

Now I ve tried to get the show going on my computer but failed.
All the movies I ve seen from him looked cool but a litle over the top.
Guess that s why they call it a show and not a documentary.

I m sure Phil is a great inspirater to start on the ducks but how about people paying money for his products and not having the same results like he do s?

Personaly I say when you have a show like he do s and make some honest money that s fine but also show that it s not like hunting in a regulair way.

Like Beaver I m from Europe too and over here it s all comment on Phil. It s like corn on PETAs windmill... It s almost that you have to feel ashamed if you are a duckhunter or hunter in anyway.

I ll read the THF everyday because I enjoy it and often there are verry interesting topics to read. Your guys culture is much more open to hunting than ours is. Anyway I feel blessed that I have much private land to hunt on and visit countrys all over the world to hunt and make new friends.

Hopefully I can see the duckcommander on my tv one day! It must be a lot more fun than seeing those hopeless newsflashes with mass killers, pedofiles and [censored] storys about our economics...

Wish you all a good day!

Greed is good.

Sounds as someone could be a stright ticket democrat... just sayin!

I say more power to the man. He has God in his life, he made the big times, gets to hunt all season long. Crap Im jealous too!

Yup.

X2!!!!
If you watch the early videos, there was no other gun in their blind besides an A5 and they praised them like he does his religion. Now you can't find an A5 in his blind. Explain this to me without saying he is a hypocrite and I'll listen. Maybe!

You've never changed guns?

Yep grew up about 10 miles from those guys....I lived that close to them for 30 years and as far as I know I never met any of them. I knew where they lived and what they came from. What they are doing now isn't greed its just business. In my book anyone that would call it greed is just jealous....Before you get all bent out of shape over my comment ask yourself if someone offered you major money to use their product.....WOULD YOU TURN IT DOWN? There isn't a single one of you out there that would...........

For real? Hell I praised my 7mag for years. Now I shoot a 300. So that makes me a hypocrite? Jealousy is an ugly ,ugly thing. My hats off to them boys, I wish I could make a living like that.

Wow, Mr X2!
You must have something hurting too.
Take this!


Use this



and calm down.

The A-5 and the Remington 1100 were the guns in their day, but Benelli came out and set a new standard in shot gun performance.

I bet you loved your first vehicle. How come you're not still driving it? You a hypocrite?

I think Willie is a doucher, was around him for a whole weekend a few years ago and he was a douche...on tv he is a douche. I think everybody else on the show is awesome, and to say that they are sell outs is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.

You sound like the jealous band kid that talks bad about the popular guys because they're getting scholarships and pullin tail and all you can do is play the clarinet.

Yea I'm jealous that's it. I've been shooting Benelli long before the bearded proclaimed duck god even got offered his contract from them. What is there to be jealous of really? I made over 20 hunts last season and on 18 of those hunts everyone limited out. Hmmmm! The DC is turning duck hunting into a sport when it is really an art. And the guy with the midol can save it for himself for next season wen he finishes watching the new DC video then cries about how many commercials are on it.

I traded my dodge in on a ford last week. the dodge haters are probably welcoming me with open arms and the dodge lovers are probably calling me a hypocrite.

I traded my dodge in for a ford just recently as well.

Can you please explain to us what you dislike about Phil Robertson and his family, specifics?

Best Line in this Whole Thread Right there!

It's interesting and cute to say but I've got to say in reality it's not true. My hunting has not changed because of what people on TV are doing...I don't set out at the beginning of the season to try to make the playoffs or set records...I do it because it's fun and I love getting out...shooting ducks is a blast but only a small part of duck hunting. There will be those that come into duck hunting because of shows like this but they will either be gone within a few years because it's more like a fad to them or they will learn what duck hunting is really all about. Either way it's good for duck hunting...the more interest in it the more money that goes into lands public and private which translates into more hunting spots and protecting the ones we have now.

Translated that for ya!


Funny reading these types of threads, without anyone saying you can definitely see the different reasons people enjoy the outdoors. Can't say that I agree with them but to each their own. Where the problem arises is when someone starts telling someone else how they should enjoy it.

I can see what causes Phil's disdain for beavers now!

This sums it up well

Just doing about all he knows how to do. Douch'ing up internet forums. Havent seen a non-db post out of him in...ever.

Lakewaydr50

If they are such nice guys to you, and you lived 10 miles away for 30 years, how come you never hunt, met with them?
Its a small town there right?

Tells a lot about them guys and enrolling in the community.

They were too busy countin their money, or trying to find a perfect graveyard to ditch their a5, sibce browning could not match their new sponsorship.

If only the ducks knew what the hell was going on...

Pathetic,,,,,,,,

And to answer your question, yes, i would turn down the money if i dont like that kind of money.

Just dont want to end up like mr foyles, or whatever his name was.

Even wonderbread will make your head twist and get yur rear greedy end in the slammer....

I can name tons of greedy people in the slammer.

And sooner or later the irs will get them boyzzzzzzzzzzzz

Looks like the beav can see through the smoking mirrors also. A gun and a truck are not even comparable. I have over a dozen of my grandfathers old guns but none of his old cadillacs. The SBE had been around for well over a decade, actually close to 2 before the duck men made their change. If you ever watch the first videos you would get the impression that the old man slept with his A5 next to the bed right by his bible. You can take that how you want to but, you should really watch the early videos and form your opinion on how money has really changed him. And I never said I didn't like him or respect his skills.

Beav you are the pathetic one. You havent made a valid point yet. I have praised plenty of guns in my life and God willing I will praise many more. Does that make me a hypocrite because I dont use the same ones that I use to praise anymore? I live in a small town and I have not hunted with a lot of folks that are my neighbors and I have been here 37 years. Does that mean that I am a greedy arse that doesnt care abot my community? I think you are just a spiteful, jealous little man that cant stand to see some one making a living doing what you wish you could.

Beav your a joke get over yourself. You sound like a little child, don't get all butt hurt because they make a great living at something they love to do. I wouldn't take anyone like your arse on my private land either.

Wow, i really got your attention, chill out, i was only kiddidn...

Ok, let me close this thread again.
Cant even make a poit here, good or bad.

you would think the Beav was talking about someones momma by reading some of these replys, but turns out its just a scripted TV show that he bad mouthed.

I hate American Idol...flame away boys

Beaver your pretty tough on a man you have never even met. He travels all over the country on his own dime, spreading the word. He can share my blind or take a seat at my dinner table any day. I really don't give a rats arse what kind of gun he shoots or promotes. If someone was to pay me I would shoot whatever they handed me. In my life I have shot Remington, Mossberg, Browning, Beretta and a lot more. Each one was like a woman, just had to figure each one out.
