High school All-State recognitions in football and wrestling, a four year scholarship in football and wrestling at Ferris State University, and a career in law enforcement as a Sheriff’s Deputy are all evidence of Jim’s work ethic and passionate drive for perfection.

But it’s Jim’s love of the outdoors that captures his greatest passion and drive. One look at Jim’s impressive trophy room of whitetails is all it takes to realize he has that “special something” when it comes to pursuing big deer. His successes in the whitetail woods are what dreams are made of for many. 

In the mid 90’s, Jim began testing his whitetail prowess on out-of-state hunts. His first trip to Kansas landed him his biggest whitetail to date, a 188” B&C giant taken after he had passed on 9 different bucks scoring over 125”. His return to Kansas the next year, netted him one of his best bow kills, a 155” P&Y buck that he shot the first morning in a stand he had scouted and set over a month earlier.

Jim’s obsession with mature deer has taken him across the Midwest. He’s been fortunate to hunt and harvest deer in Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, Illinois, North Dakota, and Ohio.
