Meet Phillip Vanderpool

Phillip Vanderpool has over 36 years of hunting experience, and is also an accomplished game caller and videographer. Phillip has taken several Pope and Young whitetail with a bow. He won the Arkansas Big Buck Classic Archery Division in 1990 and 1991. In 1994, he harvested the largest buck in Arkansas with traditional equipment- a recurve bow. In 2000, Phillip became the first bow hunter ever to take a bull elk in Arkansas.

After hunting wild turkey with a shotgun since childhood, Phillip accepted the ultimate challenge- bowhunting gobblers. He has now taken more than 20 turkeys with a bow, and captured his last ten hunts on videotape!

For the past several years Phillip has worked as a contract cameraman on numerous outdoor programs, including the Pure Adrenaline series.
