Chris Miller, i am 25 yro im from staatsburg but Ive traveled most of my life 3rd generation US Army  but im back home now working as a police officer, im married with a beautiful 5yro daughter she looks like her mother lol and a son on the way  due Nov 12Th. I love to hunt from bow to muzz and everything from squirrel to Russian boar in Germany the fav being whitetail (grey ghost) its all about just being outdoors. i do enjoy fishing tho i mostly fish with my daughter whenever we can she can really bring them in with that little princess pole from walmart. i believe in keeping hunting and fishing alive and parents should stop buying there kids video games.  
It's not a hobby it's a way of life.

Hi gang!  I'm not sure why it took me so long to find this site, but thanks to an ad from of all places, craigslist, here I am! I'm Mark Provie, and  I'm 47 .. I  grew up in New Paltz, but currently live in Highland.. I caught my first fish, and killed my first deer, squirrels , and waterfowl along the banks of the Wallkill.. While I currently work as a stock trader/trading system developer, I have worn many hats in my life.. Starting at my dad's butcher shop at a very early age (Jack's on Main st. New Paltz)..  I spent over 20 years in the sporting goods business.. working at Sunset Sporting goods in NP right out of high school, and returning as Tony's manager in the last few years before his closing..( Some of you may remember me as the OTHER big bearded guy.. with the darker whiskers  ;) )  In between I worked at a large independent store in central NJ , managing their archery and fishing depts.  I am needless to say, an avid (approaching rabid) outdoorsman.. I hunt big game with gun, bow and muzzleloader, with my first and deepest love being archery..  (hunter) I also love small game and waterfowl hunting.. I started fishing Stripers in  the Hudson in the late 70's, and continue to  fish hard  in both fresh and saltwater..  While I greatly enjoy Steelheading and fishing for all the Hudson Valley has to offer, my fishing has taken a turn more towards the salt in the last few years, and I now keep a boat down on Raritan Bay to pursue that obsession..  And as if I don't have enough "hobbies" I started building fishing rods a few years ago, which  along with a little ice fishing, helps me maintain my sanity in the winter. So anyway, I'm glad to be here, and hope I can contribute in some way.. Thanks for having me  ;D  (beers)

Hey guys, im Mike Brown. I've Been fishing and hunting pretty much since i can remember. Im pretty sure i know of a lot of you, a lot of you may know or remember me through my Father Jimmy Brown (Brownie). Saw a paper about this site in my dads shop last year, thought it was an interesting and a great idea, finally got around to making my own profile. I'm really into the site, wish i had gotten on it sooner. Excited for Bow-season to start. Having trouble posting a picture though. No matter how much i shrink the picture down it comes up as an error saying its too big.
