In 2000 he obtained a B.S. in Biology from Truman State University. A short stint in the corporate world led him to chase his childhood dream of hunting Professionally in Africa. A letter of resignation and two weeks later he found himself in the wilderness of Africa with his backpack and a borrowed large caliber rifle. His apprenticeship started with Dangerous Game in Mozambique, where he started his own safari company shortly after. He has been a full time Professional Hunter for ten years. Nathan hunts in Tanzania, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Botswana, and Zambabwe - conducting all types of Safaris. Nathan is one of the only Americans to hold professional hunter licenses in multiple countries. You will struggle to find a harder working more experienced professional hunter anywhere in the world. www.bulletsafaris.com
Sam Pharr
Owner and Call Builder of Gooserbat Game Calls has more than 25 years experience hunting Oklahoma turkeys from one side of the state to the other. Many seasons he has only hunted public land, and has gained knowledge of what it takes to hunt educated public land toms. While he himself is not a competition caller he considers the ultimate competition to be the hunt itself, and the ultimate prize to be a strutting tom in that magical "shotgun range". He founded Gooserbat Game Calls three years ago out of a need for a diaphragm call that filled the need of the hunter. Sam desribes that as being simply a line of call's that is sensitive, and produces a full array of tones, pitch and rasp. Now with the help of his wife and a small staff of talented callers he has built a solid "Mom and Pop" company that stands for a premium product at a fair and reasonable price. (417) 773-9003
Danny King: Danny King is a co-founder of the "Famous" Danny King's Catfish Punch Bait with over 50 years experience on Rod & Reel catfishing. Danny, along with his team partner, Larry Spillers, have won many honors in the Tournament Series Trails. Danny is well-known for his "Country" kind of humor both on & off the stage. Many sports writers have dubbed him "The Catfish" "Guru".

Kenneth Whitehead
Owner and Builder of Caney River Calls, which began with a passion for waterfowl. With 30 years of duck hunting experience it only comes natural to try and give back to the sport he loves. Each call is hand made and tuned by Kenneth with many prototypes tested to get what is today one of the best hunting calls on the market. They are even used in competition by a number of professional and amateur callers as well as professional guides. There is an unsurpassed amount of quality and detail that goes into each and every call. They range from wood poly to high end acrylic in both duck and goose. (918) 344-3440
