If you added up all the whitetail bucks that Gordon Whittington has written of over the last 30+ years, you'd read over 1000 incredibly well crafted stories about some of the largest whitetails the world has ever seen. A man after our own heart, we could not wait to hear Gordon's story about the bucks he's written about, how he became the Editor in Chief of North American Whitetail Magazine, and the likelihood of him joining us again on the Big Buck Podcast. We know that this interview just scratches the surface, but we learned a ton and you will too.
