VerySeriousHunting
We are dads of kids varying from teens to littles. We like to hunt deer, ducks, and bears. We speak out about conservation issues. We like to fish on fresh, salt, and ice. Sometimes, it's VERY SERIOUS, and sometimes, it's much less so. We have a great team of dudes from across Washington, with varied experience levels. Mentorship is conservation, but also a ton of fun. And on that, we are always VERY SERIOUS.
