Wilderness Refuge

NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas —-(AmmoLand.com)- Oklahoma’s newest luxury hunting facility, The Wilderness Refuge recently welcomed outdoor television celebrity Keith Warren as its first hunter.

Located near Guthrie, Okla., The Refuge features pristine countryside of expertly managed wilderness habitat with some of the state’s largest trophy whitetail. The Wilderness Refuge is co-owned and operated by Bob G. Moore of Edmond, Okla., and Kevin W. Wallace of Wellston, Okla., who is also well-known for his development of Wallahachie Whitetails as one of Oklahoma’s premier whitetail deer farming facilities.

One of the most celebrated personalities in the outdoor television industry, Warren hunted with a new Savage 20-gauge slug shotgun. Warren and his programs have a huge following on several networks including Versus, The Outdoor Channel and The Sportsman Channel. His current productions include The High Road with Keith Warren and Deer & Wildlife Stories, sponsored by the American Deer & Wildlife Alliance.

“The Wilderness Refuge is an unbelievable facility with top-of-the-line amenities and some really amazing deer,” says Warren, who has been a vocal advocate for hunters to unite in protecting the sport of hunting. “Kevin and Bob have done a fantastic job of putting together a wonderful hunting destination.”

Currently, Keith Warren’s Deer & Wildlife Stories airs on the Outdoor Channel three times every week — Tuesdays at 9 a.m., Fridays at 2 a.m. and Saturdays at 5:30 p.m. Beginning in 2010, Deer & Wildlife Stories will air three times a week on The Pursuit Channel (Direct TV 608), Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., Friday at 6 p.m. and Sunday at 12 a.m. The High Road will also air three times a week, Friday at 12 a.m., Sunday at 11 a.m. and Sunday at 8:30 p.m. All times are EST.
