dey aint always the brightest in de bayou, if you saw the episode where the hungover lad had his 22rf revolver and a few 'misfires', you wished the old man would have slapped him upside the head..I like the show, they are some crazy coon asses

Re: Swamp People
I run gator lines and crawfish myself.A 22 will kill a 800 pound gator as as fast as it will kill a 2 pounder.Shot placement is the key.There is a soft spot just behind the skull plate that is the size of a half dollar piece.If you put the bullet there game over!

I think that we are pretty bright for a bunch of swamp people.You don't ever hear of a gator eating or biting anyone from here.

Last nights episode they said that someone dies every year. They did not say how, but as a fan of the show I can see many ways. Snakes, gators, falling out of the boat, Pygmy Indians, or maybe a not so well placed .22 ricochet.

When the guy missed a shot at one on a bank from distance, all I could think was.."Where is his .308?"

Troy is the shiznit! I'm definately hooked on this show! Them guys definately have some big brass balls!! That .22 may very well do the job with correct shot placement but I'd rather have the ole .308 or the 12g slug just in case my shot isn't so perfect! If the History Channel would just play this show and Pawn Stars it would be the only channel I ever need!

Re: Swamp People
We just completed our annual gator hunt today. This morning a guy caught a 9'4" gator that went 180lbs. The gator had 3 gun shots in the head and it was still very much alive. He said, "We shot him 3 times." Yes, but it was in the skull. A nail with a hammer driven in behind the skull plate took care of him. It's amazing how thick their skull is.
The show is very much real except for all of the hype of how "deadly and killer" the creatures are. Most of the time if you don't mess with them they won't mess with you. All summer we've had a 8 footer in our swim area. He's not there for humans. He's there for the human's dogs that they take swimming with them. Nothing will bring in a gator like a dog in the water; not even rotten chicken.

Mike, is about as cool as it gets, gets them w/o issue or flare, works with his hands in his shop and build's top quality item's, to add to his hip national. Nothing seems to rattle him, always prepared for most anything, true craftsman/survivor right there.
Bruce is next, gets/grows/process's them and waits on the market as well, smart move for the supposed dumn ass Cajun, he portrays.
Troy, is funny an good and I laugh every time I see him because of the
SSSHHHOOOOOOOTTT HHIIIMMM, SSSHHHOOOOOOOTTT HHIIIMMM, SSSHHHOOOOOOOTTT HHIIIMMM, wife says I could be his voice over if need be, as I've said it so much.
True Americans all, if or when it all goes to shit them boys and their family's will never miss a beat, or meal.

Re: Swamp People
I used to live in southern Louisiana back in the early 80's fixing helicopters at Air Logistics in New Iberia.
Cajuns are some of the most down to earth folks I have ever met.
Even though I was a damn yankee, they didn't really care. Well one did.
I really loved living there, had alot of fun, ate some great food, and enjoyed some really hot women too. I miss being there.

Re: Swamp People
Whomever is doing the editing for this show needs to be fired immediately.
They're splicing together footage and making shit up.
In one scene, where the guy was supposedly waiting for the perfect shot, they showed him using three different .22 rifles as he prepared, aimed, and fired.
1. Stainless semi-auto with wood furniture
2. Lever action
3. The one that he finally took the shot with, blued semi-auto w/ wood furniture
With that kind of editing, one has to wonder how much is real and how much they're making up.
