Derik was born and raised in Northwest Wyoming where he lives today. His passion for chasing big mule deer in the fall and black bear in the spring is only rivaled by his newly found love of chasing upland game birds over his pointing dogs. From archery, lever guns, long-range rifles, to muzzleloaders he takes full advantage of Wyoming's diverse hunting opportunities and liberal hunting dates by pursuing black bear, elk, deer, pronghorn, predators, and upland game birds. It is not uncommon for him to hunt more than 100 days a year in his home state plus annually hunting Montana, Nebraska, and any other state he gets lucky and draws a tag. He particularly enjoys hunting with his fiancé Jaci and other close friends and family. It is not uncommon to find him out scouting not only for himself but a friend or family member that drew a good tag; he loves to help others find success and often prioritizes their tag over his own. He has been fortunate to hunt many different species, states, and countries.
