    Oh man. Another one that gets me is "Shooter Buck". I understand that its just a term to categorize whether one would decide to kill or not kill a certain buck. Not sure why but it just makes me laugh. I usually go against the grain. Whatever the fads are i do/say the opposite. Which is also annoying. And the last one. Haha the first time i told my uncle i was watching "Bowhunt or Die" he said "Why would you want to watch a bowhunter die" :bhod:

    Same guy I'm assuming. I think "Gimme a minute" is just as bad. Hundreds of hunting shows out there and only a small handful are worth watching. That show not being one of them.

    I really hate "Smoked him". Especially when it's a gut or shoulder shot. But even on good shots it's just annoying.

    This is one I'm guilty of using but haven't been able to figure out a solid alternative. Every time I say it I hate myself inside just a little bit. :(

    "Cull buck" to justify a smaller racked buck. Just waiting to hear the new one "Cull Doe", "She's never given birth to a Booner so she's on the cull list this year to get her genes out of the herd".

    "Smoked em" is my number one pet peeve. But then again, I don't really watch many of these shows anymore. They're all the same thing, with different and a lot of times the same advertisements and endorsements.

    You have no idea how hard those hunters work to put together a show, you are just jealous.;)

    "Smoked em", especially if it's an early/midday hunt but a nighttime recovery, or a crappy shot.

    "Stick with us" or "Let's see what happens" on the lead in...if your putting it out there I'm 98% sure the story won't feature: a lost deer or a day/days of seeing nothing.

    "Booyah" - Chris Brackett and a few others. Jim Cramer (non hunting context) is equally annoying
