I was fortunate to have a father who introduced me to hunting at a very early age. I used to tag along on squirrel hunting trips until I was old enough to follow him deer hunting in the woods of Western PA. From there, my passion for bowhunting became an obsession. Never getting to spend enough time chasing critters we began traveling out of state to chase more and bigger critters. That continues today.

In 2000, I took my passion to the next level and formed Tall Tine Outfitters, Inc. All of my friends and family have a hunting background. My daughter has been tagging along on hunts since she was 3, even sitting in treestands with me since the age of 4. I look forward to filming her future hunts. I am blessed to have met Carol. I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to have a partner that shares your same passions. We are thankful for the opportunity to film for the "Drury Outdoors" Family and look forward to letting the air off some critters on film in the future.
