E-mail: [email protected]
Location: Bloemfontein, South Africa
Married since 1991, with two boys aged 4 and 2 ½ (my partners to be)
Started hunting from before I can remember. Grandpa hunted elephants for a living, dad was a post-WW2 PH, thus I kind of grew up hunting
My favorite rifles are a .223 Zastava, .308 Musgrave and a Mauser .404 Jeffrey, and a .22 Brno.
I love pigeon shooting (we have some of the best in the world!). During pigeon season I usually forget to pay the bills, lag behind on my correspondence, and in South Africa our tax returns must be in at the height of the pigeon season! Luckily, none of my family members have their birthdays during the pigeon season, not that I can think of anyhow.
I spend a significant number of days per year (150 days is the target for 2001), hunting plains game with guests. Besides being out in the veldt, the real joy of the job is meeting lots of new friends every year, and sharing some of their most memorable moments with them.
Have a merry Xmas & a super 2001!

Hi everyone. I am Bill or Billybob. I am from N.Y. State and made the big move to Jackson Hole over 11 years ago. It was a move I will never regret. Iam 47 years of age and started hunting when I was 14. Love getting new guns as much as hunting itself. My main hunting passion is elk, but enjoy mule deer, antelope as well. Am still trying to get me a bear and a moose. Am also trying to get me a sheep permit. Animals taken are too numerous to mention, but have gotten 9 elk in 10 years. Everything from a cow, a calf, spikes, raghorns up to a 7x7.

I am going to take a stab at this "Who am I" stuff and hopefully I will get the question right.
Records show that I am Don Turnipseed but those records were done looong before computers so....
Age; I beleive that I am about 53.
Married:Many times..I have always said that after the first time.... it is kind of like falling off a horse. That first landing can be hard but you quickly learn that it is more important to keep their head up than it is yours. You horse folks know what I mean.
Where am I? North Fork, Calif. That is the geographic center of Calif. and is about 30mi. outside of Yosemite National Park
Hobbies: Dogs and hunting lead the list. Love the outdoors and camping. I raise airedale terriers for hunting and that is my true love...watching my guys do their thing. http://www.huntingairedales.com
What do I hunt: Well since the babes are running faster, or I am running slower, I have gotten a lot more serious about hunting. I have killed a few hogs.. and a few bear.. a few deer here and there and a little small game. Of course lions are tabu in Calif. so haven't done that. Haven't done any hunting out of state because I don't know what to do with all the dogs and besides, when you have made getting married a hobbie I can guarantee you that an out of state hunt would be a real luxury.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone on the board.

Hello,
My name is Ray.
AKA: Ray, Alaska.
I an 50 years old, married and have two daughters and two boys. I retired from the military a few years back in Alaska, where I have lived for over 20 years. I started hunting a few years back, right after I purchased my first and only large game rifle a Ruger .338 Magnum.
I am a "meat hunter" and the only large game I have hunted is moose. Should you have any questions about my choice of gun, or about moose hunting, please feel free to ask.

Animals hunted/harvested: Elk/7, Mule Deer/11, Whitetail Deer/0, Antelope/1, Bear/1, Turkey/2. Lots of pheasant, huns, quail, chukar, sage hens, grouse, ducks and geese.

Years hunting: I've been hunting all of my life, having been born and raised in Wyoming.
Occupation: I was an electronics technician with the Federal Aviation Administration for 31 years. I retired in 1997. I then worked as an electrician for a good friend until this fall when I was stricken with a wierd condition called A.R.D.S. Now I can't work so I just stay home and hassle my wife.
Weapons: Several, but my favorite is my .338 winmag. I also have a 30.06, .270, 6mm, 3 shotguns (BPS, Stevens double, and an old Winchester model '97 that belonged to my Grandad.) My only pistol is a K22. Never have shot a bow, but it looks like fun.
Animals Taken: Too numerous to mention but my favorites to hunt are elk and mulies. Still looking for a really big elk. Have shot a 5 point but that's the biggest. Have shot some pretty respectible mulies and antelope.
