Introductions

I thought I would start a forum for formal introductions. My name is Travis Bozeman. I am originally from North FL, and now due to work, I reside in SW GA. I will hunt just about anything, but my real passion is archery, and I love to hunt big whitetails. I went on a public hunt to KS last year and had the time of my life. If you are interested in hunting alligators in N FL, I can probably help out. One of my very good friend is a nuisance trapper for several counties in N FL, and harvests somewhere around 300 alligators a year (if I remember right). Some night you strike out, but some nights are great. Our best night that I can remeber, we caught 13 gators, and only 2 of them were under 8 ft. Thats about it for me, lets hear you introductions.

Hi you all, my name is Jeremy Jensen, I am 23 and currently live in Council Bluffs, Iowa which is SW Iowa. I am orgianlly from NC Iowa and that is where most of my family currently lives. I am a RN and I work in an Adult Intensive Care Unit. I grew up pheasant and duck hunting and I will have to say that is still my passion but bow hunting deer has got to be a close second. Back home in NC Iowa it is more crop ground and potholes so the pheasant is great and occasionaly the duck hunting is good too. In SW Iowa where there is more timber the I do a good amount of deer and turkey hunting. Hunting ducks in the timber though is probably one of the sweetest things I have done. I will hunt just about anything there but mostly I just like to meet new people and go to different places. One thing I can say is that even if the hunting is bad we will still have a good time when you hunt with me. Thanks and God bless you all!

My name is Todd Truesdell and I am currently living in Lubbock, Texas. After getting out of the Marine Corps after serving 5 years, all I could think about was getting back to Texas to hunt. When I came home, all I found was Greed in the Hunting World. I didn't have any land or know anybody so I was pretty much S.O.L. Not until I sold Time Shares was my mind opened up to the idea of Trade. Everybody has something to offer one another in this industry so why not give folks the option to trade and barter services for what they're looking for. Welcome to HunTTrader.com. I just want to grow old in the outdoors. I don't think you have to be Jim Shockey, Michael Waddell, or Bill Jordan to hunt the World. You just have to know the right people and with HunTTrader, you will meet the right people !

I hope to hunt with you all on down the road!

Names Ray, Im fifth generation Colorado resident and currently live about 30 miles from my Great Great Grandfathers homestede the family doesnt own it anymore but its still nice to have deep roots here in the mountains of CO. I grew up hunting, camping, and fishing, I enjoy fourwheeling and rock crawling when Im not hunting, I spend half of my money on fun the rest I just waste. Ill hunt anything I can get a licence for and take atleast two trips a year out of state hunting. I recently got really into filming hunts and trips, I dont have all the editting software to make anything good yet but when I get the money saved I will, If your interested in hunting, camping, fourwheelin, or rock crawling in CO I can probably help you out. I love Archery Elk hunting the best, theres just something about having an 800lb animal scream in your face at 10 yards and not even know your there but you still cant kill him because hes too close to draw your bow, but hunting mule deer in the late season is a close second, theres nothing smarter than a big mule deer buck or a greater trophy, I still havent been able to put one on the wall. Glad to meet everyone look forward to chatin with ya

Right now i am gearing up for whitetail season which starts November 15 around here. I want to start coyote,bird, and bow hunting. Along with turkey and black bear. I love it all. Just bought a new shotgun and i am hoping to do some duck hunting, i have taken it trap shooting and absolutely love it. It's a Remington M887 NitroMag. i graduate in May and I have no idea where I will be moving to. where ever it is I hope it is somewhere with a lot of hunting and fishing areas....eh and camping to....

My name is Jason Erwin, but I got the nickname Moose somehow. I am active duty Navy and deployed to Iraq right now. I grew up in Hobbs NM, so I know all the Lubbock area pretty well. Hell for me growing up Lubbock was the "Big City". I'm stationed in San Antonio and live about an hour south of there in a little town called Pleasanton. Pleasanton has a population of about 8,000 and I'm seven miles east of there, so I guess you could call it the boonies. I enjoy nothing better than hunting and just being out there goofing off. I don't get to go deer hunting nearly as much as I would like, but that's ok cause my true passion is hog hunting. I spend most of my off duty time at one ranch or another just trying to air condition a big tusker. I haven't killed anything over 200lbs, but it's just a matter of time. Other than that I'm just a normal country boy. I enjoy sitting under a masquite tree drinking beer and telling stories. I look forward to hunting with everyone and I'll talk to you all later.
