Meet Dale Larson


Meet Dale R. Larson

Dale Larson, nationally known bowhunter, trophy whitetail hunter, wildlife manager, and land manager is available to share invaluable strategies and knowledge on hunting and managing trophy whitetail. Dale’s knowledge is invaluable adding his experiences as an outfitter, licensed hunting & fishing guide, writer and seminarist, as well as TV host.

Dale, a native Kansan, has successfully hunted whitetail more than 40 years. He has harvested numerous Pope & Young bucks, including “Dagger,” scoring near the top in the records.  Dale’s “Four x Four” series of bucks are the only bucks of that magnitude taken by a single hunter in four consecutive years.

Dale does not limit his hunting abilities to whitetail. He has successfully harvested trophy elk, mule deer, bear and antelope; he is also an avid turkey hunter. Dale enjoys all of the outdoors, including fishing, photography, and videography.

As President of Bruiser Whitetail, Dale has written numerous magazine articles, along with writing the “Bowhunting Whitetails” column for “Buckmasters Whitetail Magazine.”  Dale has been featured in numerous hunting videos, TV shows, and TV commercials. He has held advisory staff positions with major manufacturers, including Bear Archery, Trophy Ridge, Mossy Oak, Nikon, Rivers Edge, Jim Fletchers Archery, Flex Fletch, Winner’s Choice, Tinks, Realtree, Swarovski, Hunter’s Specialties, Easton Arrows, Magnus Broadheads, and Carbon Express.

Dale has been actively involved in Quality Deer Management for over 25 years and manages commercial and private trophy whitetail hunting operations, with a high success rate on trophy animals. He currently owns Bruiser Whitetail LLC, which offers unequalled expertise in trophy whitetail management, as well as other hunting, wildlife management and consulting services.

Dale and his family maintain memberships in The Kansas Bowhunters Association, Pope & Young Club, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, National Wild Turkey Federation, NRA, U. S. Sportsmen’s Alliance, Buckmasters, Whitetails Unlimited and the Quality Deer Management Association.

Dale is an official scorer for both Pope & Young and BTR.


Dale and his wife, Connie, also a bowhunter, enjoy the wildlife that surround their home that he built in the Flint Hills of Northeast Kansas. Their home includes an indoor shooting range and pro shop, as well as an excellent view of the surrounding whitetail country.
