Tony Hansen

Tony Hansen is a deer hunter and smallmouth bass junkie. He's also a writer, editor and video guy as well as a dad and a husband. If described in a word, that word would be asocial.

Which is probably a fairly interesting trait given that he's spent his career in outdoors media writing for publications like Outdoor Life and is the founder of Antler Geeks, a media outlet focused on DIY whitetail hunting.

Tony joined Realtree.com officially in 2011 as the site's whitetail editor and now serves as the digital content director. You'll find a lot of his work on the Browtines and Backstraps Blog as well as throughout various other areas of the site.

Tony's passion is chasing mature whitetails in DIY fashion. Whether on public land across the Midwest or on small pieces of unmanaged private ground in the heavily-hunted state of Michigan -- if there are deer, he'll hunt them. And sometimes he even kills one.

I'm a numbers guy in some ways. Not so much in others. I try to make decisions based on the best available data and information. Some guys aren't into that. And that's fine. To each their own. But playing by the numbers, by and large, has paid off for me...
