I have a cousin who runs an outfitting service in the western US. He gets quite a bit of the TV "pro" guys that come and hunt with him. I went on an elk hunt this past fall with him and he told me that of all of the people he has ever hunted with, Larry Weishun is by far the most knowledgable outdoorsman he has been able to hunt with. I guess his forte is whitetails so if he is that knowlegeable on the western game I would imagine his whitetail savvy to be extremely good.

As far as what I have watched, read, heard etc... My personal favorites are in no particular order
Chuck Adams, Greg Miller, Dwight Schuh, and I like to read a little Aldo Leopold,I think if he had the technology of today he could have done some coolstuff with wildlife mgmt. and I dont know if I think he is a wealth of knowledge or not (i know he has more than me) but I do get a kick out of watching a little Stan Potts every now and then, he wins the enthusiasm award.
