Cambridge, Ohio --(AmmoLand.com)- Travis ‘T-Bone’ Turner, Realtree Outdoors pro-staffer and co-host of the top-rated television show The Bone Collector, will be the special guest at Whitetails Unlimited’s inaugural Big Buckeye Deer Camp Friday, April 2 in Cambridge, Ohio.

“This is a great way to kick off the Big Buckeye Deer Camp,” said WTU Ohio Field Director Denny Malloy.

“We’re in the heart of Ohio’s hunting heritage, and T-Bone understands that. He’s traveling a long way to share his hunting stories from years of experience with Realtree and the Bone Collector, and celebrate the American tradition of deer hunting with us.”

The Big Buckeye Deer Camp is a fundraising event sponsored by Whitetails Unlimited, the country’s premier white-tailed deer conservation organization. The evening includes a dinner, auction, and prizes with a wide array of products such as firearms, outfitter packages, hunting and outdoor-related equipment, artwork, and collectibles only available at WTU events. In addition, all attendees will receive a free Columbia men’s shirt or women’s skirt, a $45 value. Doors open at 5:00 p.m. and the buffet dinner will start at 7:00 p.m. For more information visit www.whitetailsunlimited.com.

T-bone brings years of experience as a championship archer, hunter, and television personality. In addition to Realtree Outdoors, he is a pro-staff member of a number of outstanding companies in the outdoor sports industry, including Hoyt, Hunter Safety System, G5 Outdoors, and Bushnell. Turner is also the celebrity archery expert to the stars, working with Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Jordan, Michael Waddell, David Blanton and several country music and Major League Baseball stars on their archery setups and shooting advice. Turner currently resides in Hogansville, Georgia, with his wife, Michelle, and son, Archer. For more information, please visit: www.TboneOutdoors.com, www.bonecollector.com, or www.realtree.com.

“T-Bone brings that ‘Brotherhood of the Bone Collector’ attitude to central Ohio,” said Malloy, “which fits in perfectly with Buckeye sportsmen. I’m really looking forward to holding my first statewide Deer Camp in Cambridge, and sharing a great night with the best deer hunters in the world.” Malloy added that, “All hunters, sportsmen, and conservationists are invited, and for more information, to print out an invitation flyer, or order tickets, just go to the WTU website at www.whitetailsunlimited.com.”

The Big Buckeye Deer Camp is sponsored by Out of Africa Safaris, G5 Outdoors, Cabela’s, Heater Body Suit, Winchester Ammunition, Columbia Sportswear, CanCooker, Mathews, and Peet Dryer.

Malloy said “The $25 ticket price is a heck of a bargain. For a $25 ticket everyone attending gets free beer and soft drinks, a Columbia shirt or skirt, a one-year membership to Whitetails Unlimited, a great dinner, and lots of great merchandise and activities.”

Founded in 1982, Whitetails Unlimited is a national nonprofit conservation organization.
