MPS Wildlife Control

Unbelievably greatful to Diamond Outfitters, Zero Outfitter Fees and Howitzer Clothing for inviting me to their Veterans hunt at Dunton Ranch in Kingman AZ. Dunton Ranch is a top notch, operation. The accommodations were exactly what a hunting lodge should be. The food was beyond anything I've ever had at a hunting camp. You will never go hungry. Everyone had a successful hunt with 2 really nice Russian boars, a meat hog and Billy goat.

The Veterans Jordan Marks, Lance Roberts, Randy Couture, myself and Dan addler all had great stories to tell and the comradery was fantastic. I hope we'll all get to do it again some day.

Had a great fall and early winter last year. All the usual trapping work with squirrels, raccoons, skunks, and beavers. Got some good coyote work done.

Had a blast hunting waterfowl with good friends. Got some late fall perch fishing in with Carson. Andrew got his first wood ducks. Went to Iowa a couple of times chasing wild roosters. Bill braved a monsoon to get up to where we were hunting. The dogs seemed to have a blast and learned a lot. Koda had a bunch of firsts. First wild woodcock flush and retrieve, first wild pheasant flush and retrieve. Sonny worked to a point where his eyes were so beat up he couldn't go much more.

The guys bailed on me on the second trip. Sonny worked a bird beautifully down a ditch row until it flushed. I didn't hit it well, so I ran to try to get another shot at it before it got away. I stepped into a hole and tore my calf really bad, and had to limp back to the car for half mile. Trip was over middle of the first day. I still thought it was one of the best trips ever. Just me and my dog out there working up a beautiful wild rooster.

I've been blessed to have a wife that gives me a ton of leeway to do the things I love. Also great friends to do them with. It makes life so much "more" when when you have awesome people to enjoy it with.

Yes I'm nuts. Pulled an all nighter doing coyote work. 4 down so far we'll see if anymore show up between now and first light.

My new skinning shack is starting to take shape. Got a few done in the last couple of days.
