About
“I grew up in southeastern Kentucky, and it is where I still currently live with my wife and two boys. As a kid Spent most of my time outdoors doing anything from hunting, fishing, riding ATVs, or just out shooting for fun. I’ve always had a competitive side when it came to various ventures, including fishing and racing ATVs. When I came across a local gun range having shooting competitions, I tried it out and was instantly hooked. After shooting bench rest for a while, I was introduced to NRL22 and PRS Rimfire. That has led to traveling across several different states shooting matches every month. The rest of my time is spent with my family and teaching my boys about the outdoors. For my full time job, I work in the Transmission Department for a natural gas company, operating and maintaining pipelines and a natural gas storage field.”
