OK boys and girls, here is the 2007 schedule for "Realtree Road Trips." (I'll run the remaining shows in the second post.) We're fired up about this season as Waddell and crew are hitting the road to chase some monster bucks, some mad longbeards and even a few things that you wouldn't expect, like mice. Trust me, you don't want to miss any of these shows.

"Realtree Road Trips" 2007 Show Schedule
Appearing on: The Outdoor Channel
Airtimes: (Sunday 9pm; Sunday 12pm; Monday 12am; Wednesday 6:30pm)
Show Descriptions:

July 2—Montana Deer/Antelope Part 1- Michael and Joel Harris, Realtree Pro Staffer, visit Western Timberline Outfitters with Jammin Krebbs, a new stop for the Road Trips crew. With this area of Montana offering whitetails, mule deer, antelope and even elk, you better be ready for anything. Michael gets the Golden Ticket on this trip, but will he close the coffin or leave it wide open for another day?

July 9—Montana Deer/Antelope Part 2- This is Road Trips first “Trapping Show,” although I promise it’s not the kind of trapping that you would assume. After the camp house floods a couple weeks before the season, the crew decides to stay in a motel about an hour from the hunting ground. The long drive finally gets to Waddell and his cohorts and they decide to clean up the camp house and take their chances on sleeping with the insects and rodents. Oh yeah, there is some great antelope and whitetail hunting as well—we didn’t forget that this is a hunting show!

July 16—Arizona Elk- After 10 years of applying, Waddell has finally drawn the coveted Arizona elk tag in Unit 10. See just how close Waddell can get to his Arizona monarch before dropping the hammer. This show will have the hair on your back standing up…. that’s pretty gross if you have hair on your back!

July 23—Newell Ranch Part 1- A toe-tappin’, knee-slappin’ good time sums up this deer and hog extravaganza at the Newell Ranch in Texas with country music rockers Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert. The fun begins when Michael’s bow is misplaced by the airline and it forces him to hunt with the ranch manager’s recurve. Maybe the airline should lose Michael’s compound more often?

July 30—Newell Ranch Part 2- Its the finale of the trip with Blake and Miranda at the Newell Ranch. Blake overcomes his hog addiction and moves on to try and smack one of those horned whitetails. It’s amazing what hunting out of a sleeper cab of a Mack truck can produce… you will just have to see this show to believe the whitetails. Oh yeah, Uncle Ted (Yes, that’s the Nuge) makes an appearance at the ranch and wears out a Realtree Martin guitar… just a bonus feature for an awesome trip!

August 6—Blue Angels Turkey Ride- We join up with two members of The Blue Angels on a north Florida turkey hunt with some hard-headed longbeards. Todd Herbert and Anthony Walley find out just how hard it can be when the turkeys don’t act right in the south, and Michael Waddell finds out just how tough it is to stay awake in a Navy F-18 Blue Angel jet. The Road Trips squad is dedicating this show to Lt. Commander Kevin Davis, who lost his life flying on April 21, 2007.
