Lee and Tiffany Lakosky have been producing whitetail-focused hunting television since the early 2000s. The show started as "Getting Close with Lee and Tiffany" before being renamed to "The Crush with Lee and Tiffany," which has become a long-running fixture on the Outdoor Channel. Based in Iowa, they manage approximately 5,000 acres for trophy whitetails, with a focus on habitat improvement, food plot design, and deer herd management. Their approach appeals to hunters who want to improve the quality of deer on their own land.
