Welcome to “The Deer Hunter’s Roundup-” Over 50 Years Strong – Celebrating A Wisconsin Tradition

We are BACK this season!

This Northwoods tradition has been on the air for over 50 years! Each night of the traditional 9-day gun deer season (with the exception of Thanksgiving Day), we open up the phone lines for 2 hours and turn the radio station over to hunters scattered all over Wisconsin and the Midwest.

Unscripted, unrehearsed, and unedited, your audio journey takes you deep into the woods, and brings out stories and humor that can’t be found anywhere else.  

Going on his 25th year of hosting the show, Joel Karnick leads the nightly 2-hour train-wreck with precision and expertise.  Helping to kick up deer stories and humor, Gray Gunderson and “Big G” are always ready to chip in with jabs and sarcasm.

Pop open a cold one, take a big bite of that jerky stick, and settle in for the craziest and most unpredictable radio experience that radio can offer.
