Hunting, Fishing
The outdoors have been my passion for my entire life. I have spent thousands of hours out in the woods, at rivers, and lakes pursuing my passion for the outdoors. Instead of doing sports in high school, I would partake in hunting and fishing, spending almost every weekend in the outdoors trying to enhance my knowledge on the game I was chasing.
