Hey everyone! Finally decided to jump in and feed the addiction full-time. My name is Chris and I live in SE TN. I own a small archery shop here which takes up the majority of my time. I've been trying to plan an elk hunt for the past couple of years and it really hasn't worked out with my schedule but I've been offered a job doing the same thing I'm doing now out in Utah so perhaps this is the year! I'm a 12 year veteran of the Marine Corps and a culinary school graduate, guess that's an odd pairing but I consider it more of a well-rounded type of thing lol. Look forward to picking y'all's brains on equipment and technique, it's looking like if it happens it will be an OTC hunt in Idaho. I might also mention that I'm really into the trad gear so I know that's going to add just another level of difficulty to the equation but I look forward to the challenge. Now, time to dive on in....
