I'll ask the moderators to give this link a little leeway with content. This is the second time (1998 camp) that the Upper Peninsula, Michigan TV show called "Discovering" has come to our camp to film the traditions of hunting camp. They feature our camp for 2/3 of the show (about 24 minutes, so get a good cup of coffee). Ron LaClair does both his Armstrong Creek Ghost poem and his Shrewhollow diddee. They show two of us shooting our bows for practice (I'm the guy on the front porch shooting the yellow and orange fletch arrows and a 1971 Super Kodiak). More importantly, the host is trying to capture why deer camp is so sacred to the Upper Peninsula on a show that's more than just about hunting. The host, Brian, has just taken over for 30 year veteran Buck Lavasser who taped the show at our camp in 1998. I think the show is in good hands with Brian. He's well spoken and he was a treat to have in camp. He spent 4-5 hours at our camp getting to know us and taping. Based on the footage, I'm sure it took him a whole week to put it together.
If you watch it and like it and are a facebook person, please like it there. It would be great to give this kind of show some extra publicity, because it's just the kind of PR that we need for our sport.
Cheers
