Jim Shockey Film

[RyanT26]

The hero worship in the hunting industry is second to none and kinda gross. After the BS he pulled with the deposits during covid I’d say crook or scammer is a more fitting.

But he is such a good guy!!! He only stole 30% when he could have stolen the whole 50% deposit.......

Like @CorbLand said. Its fun to watch the guys that preach about the right thing do the dishonest thing when its gonna cost them money out of their own wallet.

I wrote a bunch and deleted it. Y’all google the post and come up with your own conclusion, but that’s about all I need to see.

My vote is he sucks.

She and Eva could have been in school during the same time period.

Interesting. He’s been bopping all over the globe with one of the SCI auction girls since a month or two after his wife died from what I’ve seen. Lots of bad looks for old Jim past and present IMHO. Actions speak louder than words. Very, very few of the “celebrities” in the industry are what they appear. I think I’ll pass on the dramatic film.

I have a very close friend who did similar after his wife passed from a long battle with cancer.

The mourning process starts much earlier when it’s inevitable and drawn out.

Not a 223....but it is a CA and a Leupold. He never missed with it either...even after dropping it down a rockslide! Weiserbucks..well he did say he was hard on his clients in the early days...pushed them to success, so maybe your buddy was soft and didn't like it.

As far as losing a hunt deposit to covid, he had expenses to cover whether you show up or not for his hunting season, he pays costs out in advance and its not his fault lockdowns took place either. Blame China.

unless you have had your long time spouse die, you have no idea how one should mourn that loss. some take a long time for it to ease up and get back to normal while others handle it much better and can move on more quickly...and some never move on and it impacts their life until they themselves pass on. I too have friends that got passed the grief much faster than I have. don't judge when it comes to a grieving process.

 

[pacoalcracker]

who one hooks up with, whether she is younger or older...who cares? lots of young women like older men for lots of reasons. Louise passed a year ago...give the guy a break already. everyone knows how tight Jim and Louise were, unless you were blind, stupid and arrogant.

You can't keep a deposit if you can't or won't actually provide the service. Not ethically anyways.
As far as legally that depends on the jurisdiction and what terms you agreed to.
Agreeing to completely non refundable deposits is really dumb on the purchasers side.

Very cool. Ive been watching Jim hunt since I was a kid.

BINGO.. How long do we want someone to grieve? Just because someone has moved on doesn't mean they have forgotten or didn't love the person who passed.

Good video. Some of yall come across as very jealous. Take a deep breath and just watch the video. I think it’s pretty cool that a man’s son man a great video about his dad.

I like his most of his hunting videos but didn't care for this one.

Probably therapeutic for him and his family. Good for them.

Really didn't like his preaching philosophy to those kids like
they were all sitting around a campfire drinking bourbon with him.
Let kids be kids. Your actions teach louder than words.

Best way to get over somebody is to get under somebody new..

The person I'm referring to is harder than a coffin nail. Nice try.

His daughter Eva is an absolute smoke show!

I've also seen Jim film a shot with his scope covers on.

Carry on.

I like her, but I don't know why ladies feel the need to get bolt ons. It's tough for me to see it as anything other than shallow and vanity run amok.

I’ve seen some ass kissing on here but Jim’s ass must be red from all the smooching in this thread.

I’m not here to make any moral judgement on the man. I wonder how many of us would be considered “a good guy” if most of our life was public, and most of our activities were filmed.

No “hero worship” going on here, although I agree that it does happen. I’m not sure it’s any worse in the hunting world than anywhere else. Take a look at sports, Hollywood, or any other form of enter/hobbies. I didn’t grow up with TV in the house, have never watched a single episode of his TV. Only ever listened to him on a few podcasts where he told his life story, and a few YouTube videos.

There’s no question that Jim is a very interesting person with a very interesting story. The Hand of Man museum is something else, and is a testament to his unique life. He’s well spoken and knows how to tell a story through film. This one really isn’t even a hunting film, more of a broader philosophy/life experience sort of film. The story he told in it resonated with me.

Interesting. Most of this thread is bashing him
