We hear it all the time, "Hunting, is not what I do, but who I am." In my case however, it's both what I do and who I am. It's a fortunate opportunity I've been blessed with for the past 24 years.

I think we all dream of making a career out of something we love to do, and luckily for me I have definitely been able to make that dream come true.
As a youngster, I was introduced to hunting by my father.
I think we all dream of making a career out of something we love to do
We spent much of our time in our home state of Colorado chasing green heads and Canadian honkers (my father's real passion).

However, it was the once a year deer and elk hunting trip that I spent many sleepless nights thinking about. Although my father is since long gone now, the memories of my first spike muley, and him by my side at age 14 - will never be forgotten.
my life's direction changed forever
After high school I was offered a chance to guide deer and elk hunters close to home, and my life's direction changed forever. I continued school but only during the spring and summer sessions as fall was reserved for guiding hunters.



By my early 20's I was operating my own outfitting company and all thoughts of law school were long forgotten. For years I specialized in outfitting and guiding trophy Whitetail and Mule deer hunts on the Plains of eastern Colorado, along with some elk hunts in Colorado and New Mexico as well.

I lost count long ago of the many great bucks we've taken over the years, but there's no doubt that the Plains have been good to me. It's a passion I still have today as I continue to guide regularly throughout eastern Colorado and elsewhere!
the "King", the lion, the single greatest creature ever to walk planet Earth!
Elk has always been my biggest passion in North America, but it was Africa that captured my imagination from a very young age. I still remember Mutual of Omaha's "Wild Kingdom", and I simply could not imagine what Africa would be like, especially the "King", the lion, the single greatest creature ever to walk planet Earth!
