Mr. Whitetail- Larry Weishuhn

Met Larry at DSC a couple weeks ago. Since I had been trying to track him down for awhile now I made sure to get his cell number so I wouldn't have to go thru "his people" anymore

So anyway, Larry will be on the show either this weekend or next so if you have anything specific you would like me to ask one of the most knowledgable deer hunters out there let me hear from ya and post your thoughts.

I am really looking forward to this interview. Larry is not only a famous hunter and advocate for the outdoor lifestyle but he is also from Houston

If you don't know who he is:

Tell him to buy a rifle and put down the pistol.

Should be a good one Cable, congrats on yet another great catch!

I met him and spoke with him for 30 minutes on Sunday at the Houston Safari Club convention. He is a great guy.

Tell him a fellow Ag has requested that he start whooping each time he actually hits a deer.

Ask him why he stole my name??????


I am "Mr. Whitetail"

Ask him what he thinks about TU?

I have to agree with this.

I'd like to tell him 1) that I appreciate all of the fantastic advocacy he does on behalf of all hunters; 2) he really needs to stop trying so hard with regards to his hunting shows. All the stuff thats taped after the kill then played back so it looks like he's "in the moment" is painful to watch. Other than that, like I said, I personally appreciate all he does.

I like him, real personable guy. Big Mike was out with us when he was out at the ranch

Will be a great show. Big fan of TC Contender hunting.

I like his hat.

When did Larry move? He's been living in Uvalde for years. He's orginally from Frelsburg Tx not Houston.

He is knowlegeable but is full of bs as well.

Excuse me, Houston was the largest major city to where he grew up. Would make more sense that he didn't grow up in a major metro area.

Cable..................M16 and Larr are buddies, I believe their ranches border one anothers, or up the road

Frelsburg is not a major city? Heck it's got like 75 people.

My apology if I came off as a jerk cable.

They must have a really large city limits then....

I agree he sure does "miss" alot

Ask him who his idol(s) were when he got started in the business.

He is one of my Favorite TV Hunters. Talked to him at The Grapevine,TX BassPro for 15-20 minutes. GREAT Guy!

always talk with him during the varmint contest at cazadores. he is always a nice guy to talk with

No worries man I am sure Frelsburg is a wonderful place to grow up.

Ask him, from a herd management standpoint, would it be better to have the doe/spike season before the general season and remove them prior to the rut?

Ask him what he thinks about Dr. Kroll or Kroll's studies.

Pin him down on his position with respect to antler restrictions.

Since its a such a heated topic on this forum ask him about the effect of ars in east texas. Maybe ask him if there are any changes he would make to them.

whoops didnt read page two

X2 i would love to know wht he thinks about kroll's new spike study

Like he's ever hunted East Texas.
Well, maybe on a private ranch or something.

good point

Ask him why helicopter pilots refuse to let him aboard anymore!

X1000

It would take someone like him to talk in an educated way about how the AR's are effecting the overall hunting in Texas, and explain what the ultimate goal is of TPWD in his opinion.

My gut tells me he would dance around that subject kind of like a politician when handling that question, being the gentleman he is.

It still would be nice to hear a Aggie Wildlife biologist tell us the cause and affect now that it has been tried.
He should know the details we never hear about.
He's been around longer then any of the others too I bet.

hell yea!

Yep he would. Especially if you threw in the extra spike tag in the question!

Will try and ask him all the serious questions and comments. Good stuff.

Looks like the concensus was antler restrictions, but few people may know that he has been involved in many many helicopter crashes doing head counts on deer.

Yall leave him alone.

I saw him opening day of dove season in uvalde at the stripes buying coffee.

and no, folks, he wasn't wearing his hat

ask him if he has ever sighted in or practiced shooting his pistol. on a serious note,ask him if he only had one hunt left,what would it be for and where would it be at?

how many helicopter crashes can one live thru?????

Double digit ones the last count in the mid 90's when he flew one for me once....had just had crash on take off on a survey the year before I had him do one for me.

LOL! Failure to Launch!

Larry is to whitetail deer hunting as to Bill Dance is to fishing

Yep, that one in the 90's on take off is the one that gave him the back problems he has today. He walks with a walking stick a lot on hunts now because of it.

I would like hear his thoughts on Ar's and the ever growing problem with hog infestation in Texas.

I have a high opinion of Mr. Weishuhn.

Since Larry has added a scope to his pistol and a tri pod, he should just add a stock extension to that pistol and his hitting percentage just might improve!

Just recorded the interview with Larry. It will air this weekend. I have to say he is one of the nicest people I have encountered and he had a lot to say on AR's on management phiolosophy in Texas.

I think you guys will enjoy it.

If he has as strong a knowledge on AR's as he should, and an opinion as I'm sure he did, you didn't have to worry about having had something to talk about and take up time! LOL!

Thanks for the heads up!

Did larry buy one of the big ranches down in south texas? I thought i heard something about this?

He def shared his thoughts

So is he ARs or ARs or tune in and find out?

I met him on the trip back from the Eastern Shore. Real nice guy.

Does he still wear those 1980's glasses frames?

Lets just say he is on your side

Have I said how much I respect Larry?

Curly - you actually made me giggle like a school girl. Nicely played!

I ain't totally ignurnt.

Well I know where you will be Saturday morning

I am curious to see what he has to say. Unfortunately, I think he is going to approach the issue around the inabilty to cull which I agree with 100%. However, most culls posted on the THF are a trophy to me.

Sorry to say I missed it this morning (I guess I am a little bit ignurnt ) BUT I will definitely catch it Monday morning on the podcast!!

Podcast is up if you want to hear. www.lonestaroutdoorshow.com

Episode 55

Listening now!

Glad he looks at ARs like I do, a good idea and some places but in time will do more harm than good by allowing a narrow high rack gene to eventually take over. Glad he touched on hogs vs the deer population. Going to shoot everyone I see now whether I take the meat or not.

Cable, just listened to it. Ya did real good again.

I appreciate you listening and thanks

That was a great interview I really enjoyed that!

Cable - another great job.

It seems like Larry and I have seen the same positive results from the implementation of AR's.

Great interview Cable, and for asking all the right questions, and thank you for all you do!

I'm 64 years old and have listened to many outdoors shows over the years, but yours is the best I've ever heard!

Keep up the good work!
