Don’t field-dress that deer near your stand, or you’ll ruin it for the rest of the season! That’s conventional wisdom with the time-honored stamp of approval from the old guys in deer camp. But does that mean it’s true? Do gut piles really spook deer? Mike Hanback and Will Brantley discuss the pros and cons of gutting your deer where it falls.
1Realtree's Michael Pendley tells the story of the archery elk hunt with his son, Nathanial "Potroast" Pendley, last fall in the mountains of Eastern Kentucky.

Will Brantley sits down with Mark Hayes, design engineering manager at Mathews Archery, to talk about the new-for-2023 Phase 4. The flagship compound is a continuation of the CrossCentric Cam series, but with some major differences. Hayes says it's the quietest bow Mathews has ever built.
Laran Kaplan's big buck story ran a few weeks ago on the Realtree Rack Report, and it quickly became a reader favorite.

Host Will Brantley sat down with Laran Kaplan for the full story in Kaplan's own words.

Brantley sits down with Missouri hunter and long-time Realtree Pro-staffer Brad Harris, who gets credit for inventing the original grunt call.

Will Brantley talks sub-gauge turkey guns with CVA's Rick Taylor. The CVA Scout is a single-shot .410 with a Realtree Timber stock and Jeb's choke tube, and it's already proving itself in the turkey woods. Brantley and Taylor talk loads, patterning, accessories, effective range, and more.
Will Brantley and Miles Fedinec recap a recent turkey trip to Texas's North Zone, where the weather was terrible.

This week we dig into the nitty gritty of some exciting turkey research happening right now in Alabama, spearheaded by Auburn University's Dr. Will Gulsby.

Plus, Kent and Will Brantley discuss why some properties hunt better during the rut than others, and why a few days each season seem to be magical all over the country.
Will Brantley joins Browning's Rafe Nielsen at the end of a late-November hunt in western Nebraska. Rafe was after a whitetail, Brantley was after a mule deer, and both found success on big bucks.
