Crawfish boils, stopping by a friend’s camphouse to drink a beer and tell lies on the season, spending time with friends and family. I can do all of those things right here from my little corner of Alabama without sleeping in my truck and filming myself rubbing my eyes and telling the YouTube world how tired I am. I hunt for my enjoyment. I’ve been on out of state trips for my enjoyment. I’m not doing it to have a measure off with guys that don’t mean a thing in the grand scheme of the world.


Some people are just wired differently. I love being alone in the wilderness. I spend so much of my life surrounded by people, I’ve really gotten to the point where I prefer going on most of these adventures by myself. There’s nothing like the peacefulness of sitting on a mountaintop, laying eyes on it for the first time as the sun rises, all by your lonesome.

I used to travel with friends, but nowadays the majority of my turkey travels are alone, deer season is my social outlet.
