Show Concept
Primitive Instinct, hosted by professional hunter and popular television personality Gregg Ritz, ushers in a dynamic genre of documentary-style outdoor television. Filmed on location across North America, Primitive Instinct chronicles Gregg’s relentless quest for a variety of record book trophies. With emphasis on the pursuit of giant whitetails, Primitive Instinct treats viewers to epic encounters in the whitetail woods, as well as unforgettable hunts for elk, moose, sheep and other coveted big game trophies. Gregg also explores our hunting heritage, immersing himself in the rich hunting cultures of the Northeast, Midwest and other regions.
“Primitive Instinct gives me an exciting opportunity to share my experiences with other hardcore hunters and adventure seekers,” said Gregg. “It’s about so much more than record-book results. It’s about matching wits with wild and wary big game, and paying respect to not just the animals we pursue, but also the unforgiving landscapes they call home. It’s about honoring our hunting heritage. It’s about pushing yourself further than you thought possible to overcome obstacles and pursue life-altering adventure – no matter what stands in your way.”
