Growing up in a family full of avid hunters, being in the outdoors was just a normal everyday thing to me. I can remember like it was yesterday, going with my father on my first-ever out of state hunt as a child in Alabama at a place called Bush Creek Plantation. That hunting trip is just one of the many reasons I picked my career path as a hunting outfitter.
Everyone wants to be an outfitter on the Eastern Shore, or at least that’s what it seems. People see dollar signs! Really, outfitting is so much more than making a dollar. If you love the outdoors like I do, then you understand. Seeing hunters come to our camp, experiencing the atmosphere, and the camaraderie is something everyone should get a chance to be a part of, at least once in my opinion. If our camp walls could tell the stories told from different hunters across the world, I believe we’d have enough to publish a book!

There is a lot of hard work that goes into running Muddy Bottom Outfitters. That includes developing and executing the management plan I’ve established for our wildlife, the preparation before, during and after hunting season, and of course ensuring that we provide an experience that everyone will enjoy and remember for years to come.
