My outdoor interests started at a very young age. The first time I wrapped my hands around a fishing pole, I knew it was something special. As I got older I started hunting. My father didn't hunt, so there were several years of trial and error, and far more failures than successes. But, as time passed I started learning a little more and was then able to apply those things to my hunting experiences. After a while, things started to click and I began to have some unforgettable outdoor experiences. Now I have an opportunity to pass this small amount of knowledge on to my children. I truly believe the best memories in the field are ahead of me.
