My name is John Young. I live in Florida and I will be hunting osceolas.
I am a Christian man, been married for 22yrs and I have three children, all three are teenagers.
I have worked at the USPS for over 26yrs.

I have about 4 or 5 hunts set up for this year. I hunt public land, Quota hunts mostly, but was drawn for an area that allows less people and has lots of birds.

I use a Mossberg 535 with an SSX choke and shoot Hevi Shot, 3 1/2", #6 shot.

I look forward to meeting and hearing all about you guys and your hunts. We had a great team last year, and I expect it to be the same this year.

Jerry Courtney, I live in NE Kansas and hunt both easterns and rios. As of now have only hunts here at home planned, Texas is a possibility.
I am single with nothing but a bird dog, a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon naned Taz, who helps me chase a lot of waterfowl and upland birds.
I shoot a Missberg Silver Reserve
O/U with a SSX HD in top barrel and Wilson Precision IM in botton. I shoot 1 3/4oz hand loaded HW 15 #7.  Look forward to another great year.

BowTech


Mark I am glad you are on our team, We are going to get along just fine.

     I see that John.  Lol.  I think I read he was going to use his bowtech for a while and then switch over to his shotgun.  If he had a Mathews he would of said that he WAS going to kill one with his bow. Just kidding,  good luck with your bow and have a great season.

[Hoosier Daddy]

I'm working with my brother right now remodeling houses and drive right through a wma on my way. And since he don't get out of the bed before 8 or so maybe i can get a few quick ones done this year.

[backwater]

Good to meet you Evan. Welcome to the team.  When does your season start?

[bornagain64]

Welcome to the team Evan.
There are some birds on public land, but there are a lot of hunters also. If you can get away from the other hunters you can get on some birds. Its a lot more work, but it is worth when you get one on an wma.
