- How did your passion for wild life, wild places, and fair chase hunting and fishing blossom? Camping, fishing, skiing, hiking and biking in the mountains and deserts of Utah from a young age
Favorite/most memorable hunting/fishing story? Shooting my first Wild Turkey. I was making lunch in my kitchen and saw a giant Tom cruising the woods behind our house. I conveniently had left my gun in my truck from the day before searching for turkeys, so I quickly ran and grabbed it, then stalked the old Tom for a couple minutes and took a clean shot and dropped the bird instantly. Wildly unconventional hunt, but memorable nonetheless. No Camo needed.
Choose your weapon: fly rod, rifle, or bow? Fly Rod
What is the best hunting/fishing advice you have received? Patience, patience, patience
