A Hunter's Quest Sharing the message that sustainable hunting is a critical tool for conservation.

10/06/2026

Another incredible mountain memory rolled into the trophy room. The Bezoar ibex is one of the most iconic and important mountain species a hunter can pursue, and chasing this magnificent animal was a true adventure—one filled with rugged terrain, breathtaking scenery, and the challenges that make mountain hunting so rewarding. Having this mount preserved allows me to relive those memories and experiences for decades to come.

But beyond the memories, my trophy room has become one of the most valuable educational tools I own. Over the years, hundreds of children and adults have walked through these doors and seen animals they will likely never encounter in the wild. It provides an opportunity to appreciate the raw beauty, diversity, and significance of wildlife from around the world while learning about the habitats they call home.

Most importantly, it creates conversations about conservation. Every animal in this room represents a story of sustainable wildlife management, habitat protection, and the financial contributions that hunting provides to local communities and conservation efforts worldwide. Hunting helps fund conservation, supports rural economies, creates incentives to protect wildlife and habitat, and ensures that future generations will have the opportunity to experience these incredible animals.

This Bezoar ibex is far more than a mount on the wall. It represents an unforgettable mountain adventure, a deep respect for wildlife, and a lasting opportunity to educate others about the important role hunting plays in conservation around the globe.

The Lord Derby eland is one of Africa’s greatest trophies and one of the most incredible animals I have ever pursued.

This hunt took place in the heart of the Central African Republic during a civil war that was escalating as | arrived, with unrest spreading into the very area where we hunted. The region held some of the finest Lord Derby eland on the continent, but it was also a place where elephant poaching was rampant and danger was never far
away.

For nine days we tracked on foot, covering dozens and dozens of miles through some of the wildest country imaginable. We passed several good bulls, holding out for the chance at something truly special. Late on the final evening, that gamble paid off when we encountered the bull of a lifetime.

While the trophy itself was extraordinary, what I remember most is the adventure. The uncertainty, the challenges, the risks, and the relentless pursuit of one of the world’s most magnificent antelope made this a hunt I will never forget.

It was a reminder that some of the greatest rewards come only after overcoming the greatest obstacles. A true Central African Republic adventure and a memory that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

June 6, 1944. Eighty-two years ago today, thousands of young American soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy in one of the most courageous acts in human history. Many were barely out of their teens, yet they answered the call when freedom itself hung in the balance.

They faced unimaginable danger, knowing that many would never return home. Their sacrifice helped turn the tide of World War II, defeat N**i tyranny, and preserve the freedoms that generations have enjoyed ever since.

Everything we cherish today-the ability to raise our families, pursue our dreams, enjoy the outdoors, hunt, conserve wildlife, speak freely, and live our lives as we choose-exists because brave men were willing to risk everything for a cause greater than themselves.

On this D-Day anniversary, we remember those heroes who charged into history on the shores of Normandy. Their courage, sacrifice, and devotion to freedom must never be forgotten.

Freedom is never free. Today, and every day, we honor the Greatest Generation and the young Americans who gave everything so that we could live free.

The ultimate chess match in the African wilds.

🐆 An old tom leopard, taken after days of patience, strategy, and respect for one of the most elusive predators on the planet. I’ve been fortunate to hunt multiple leopards over the years, and each time it reminds me-there is no easy moment, no shortcut. Just a battle of instincts between hunter and hunted.

Leopards are masters of adaptation. As their habitat has shrunk, they’ve learned to live alongside people, moving unseen, hunting silently, surviving where few others can. That resilience is exactly why balance matters. Like all predators, their numbers must be managed so prey species can thrive and ecosystems remain intact.

Regulated hunting has played a critical role in that balance-bringing vital funding into remote regions, supporting anti-poaching efforts, and providing real value to wildlife and the communities that live among it.

WHEN WILDLIFE HAS VALUE IT IS PROTECTED.

In places like India, where management is limited, human-wildlife conflict has become a growing issue. But across much of Africa and especially in Tanzania-you see a different story. A model where conservation, community, and sustainable hunting work together. Tanzania stands as one of the great success stories, proving that when done right, hunting doesn’t diminish wildlife—it helps secure its future.

This hunt, deep in the wilds of central Tanzania, is one l’ll never forget. And it’s why I created A Hunter’s Quest-to show the world that conservation isn’t theory... it’s action on the ground.

The leopard hunt remains, in my eyes, one of Africa’s ultimate pursuits. And I can’t wait to do it again.

One of the most striking animals in Africa-the Hamadryas baboon of Ethiopia. 🇪🇹

Having been fortunate enough to hunt and travel throughout Africa, Ethiopia stands apart as one of the most unique destinations on the continent. Its rugged mountains, dramatic landscapes, and remarkable collection of endemic species create a hunting experience unlike anywhere else on Earth.

What impresses me most about Ethiopia is its commitment to wildlife management. The country has demonstrated that when wildlife has value, it is protected. Through regulated trophy hunting, local communities, wildlife authorities, and conservation programs receive the resources needed to preserve habitat, combat poaching, and ensure that these incredible animals continue to thrive for future generations.

Conservation is not simply about protecting animals—it is about creating sustainable systems where wildlife and people both benefit. Ethiopia has embraced this model, and the results can be seen in the healthy populations of many of its unique species and the vast wild landscapes they inhabit.

This is conservation in action-wildlife given value, habitat protected, and future generations able to experience these remarkable animals in the wild.

🫎 Few animals symbolize the wild places of North America more than a giant Alaska-Yukon moose. This old bull was taken deep in the Alaska backcountry, in rugged sheep country where the mountains are vast, the weather is unpredictable, and every step must be earned.

After locating him holding with two cows across a canyon, a precise 670-yard shot was required to bring the hunt to a successful conclusion. But as every experienced mountain hunter knows, the shot is only the beginning. What followed was the real challenge-packing hundreds of pounds of meat and a massive trophy off the mountain through steep, unforgiving terrain. It took determination, teamwork, and many hours of hard work, but every ounce of effort was worth it.

What makes Alaska so special is its incredible remoteness. There are still places where a hunter can travel for days and never see another person. The scale of the landscape is difficult to describe until you’ve experienced it yourself. Vast mountain ranges, endless valleys, unpredictable weather, and true wilderness create an adventure unlike anywhere else in North America.

This hunt remains one of my most cherished memories. Not just because of the size of the bull, but because of everything it took to reach him and bring him home. Standing over such a majestic animal in one of the last great wildernesses on earth is a reminder of how wild and untamed Alaska still is.

The Alaska-Yukon moose is one of North America’s most iconic species, and harvesting an old bull like this is a privilege I will never forget.

One of the oldest and most impressive warthog boars I’ve been fortunate enough to take, harvested in the wilds of Uganda 🇺🇬 with Lake Albert Safaris ( ). In today’s Africa, truly giant old boars are becoming increasingly rare due to constant pressure from predators, poaching, disease, and natural mortality. Reaching old age is an achievement in itself, making a trophy like this incredibly special.

What makes this hunt even more meaningful is the conservation story behind it. The Lake Albert region is a shining example of how sustainable hunting can protect wildlife and habitats. Not long ago, Uganda kob populations in this area were on the brink of disappearing. Through strong wildlife management, anti-poaching efforts, and revenue generated by regulated hunting, the kob have made an extraordinary recovery. Along with them, species such as warthog, buffalo, and many other plains game animals have flourished.

Standing behind this old warrior is a reminder that conservation success stories are possible when local communities, outfitters, governments, and hunters work together. Uganda’s wildlife comeback is proof that sustainable use can be one of the most powerful conservation tools in the world.

A 15+ foot crocodile from Zambia’s legendary Luangwa River-one of Africa’s greatest places to pursue these ancient monsters. 🐊

The Luangwa is vast, wild, and full of hidden channels where old crocodiles can survive for decades on a steady diet of antelope and other wildlife coming to the water’s edge. The biggest bulls become true dinosaurs of the river, growing to immense size and often creating real danger for the local villages that depend on these waters every day.

This old warrior had clearly lived a long life. During the skinning process, we discovered brass bangles worn by local women, along with the remains of a puku and numerous other bones in his stomach-evidence of both his age and the immense power he wielded along this river system.

For me, pursuing old giant crocodiles is one of Africa’s ultimate hunting challenges. I’ve been fortunate to take four crocodiles exceeding 15 feet, and every one of them required patience, preparation, precision, and respect for an animal that has survived for decades in one of the wildest places on Earth.

‼️These are the adventures I love sharing through A Hunter’s Quest. Join us on YouTube as we document these incredible hunts, the wildlife, the people, and the conservation stories behind them.

Almost 20 years... and somehow it still feels like it started the moment I first saw you and just knew.

In a life that’s taken me across continents, into the wildest places on earth, chasing dreams that demand time, distance, and sacrifice-you have been the constant. The steady ground beneath every step. The strength behind every mile.

You’ve carried more than your share... raising our two incredible daughters with love, patience, and grace while I’ve been out in the world pursuing a passion and a purpose. A Hunter’s Quest, the message, the miles, the moments-it all exists because you believed in me enough to let me chase it. That kind of love isn’t loud... it’s powerful, selfless, and unwavering.

And eight years ago, when our faith, our trust, and our love were tested in a way neither of us could have ever imagined... there was never a doubt. Not in you, not in us. We faced it head on, together-and came out stronger, closer, more connected than ever. If there was ever a moment that made everything clear, that was it. It showed me, without question, that I cannot walk this life without you.

We’ve had our highs, our challenges, and everything in between-but through it all, there’s never been a moment l’ve questioned that you are the best decision l’ve ever made.

You are my partner, my foundation, my home. And everything I’ve been able to experience, everything I’ve been able to build... is because of you.

Here’s to the life we’ve lived-and the one still waiting for us. I’d choose you all over again, every single time. ❤️

There are certain animals that leave a permanent mark on your soul as a hunter... and for me, the greater kudu has always been one of them.

The very first animal I ever harvested on the continent of Africa many years ago was a greater kudu, and ever since that moment, this magnificent spiral-horned ghost of Africa has held a very special place in my heart. After hunting over a dozen kudu across Africa, this old giant stands alone.

Crossing the tape at over 62 inches, well beyond the magical 60-inch mark, with the mass and character of a true monarch, this was one of the greatest animals I have ever taken. An ancient bull at the very end of his life that had survived hunters for many years in a completely free-range environment. Every inch of him tells the story of survival, intelligence, and age.

This hunt was a complete chess match from beginning to end — the kind of pursuit that reminds you why mature old animals become legends. And every time I look at these horns in my trophy room, they almost don’t seem real. This kudu was nearly 20% larger than any mature bull I had ever seen or taken before, a true giant among giants.

But what makes this animal even more meaningful to me is what it represents beyond the trophy itself. This free-range population exists because wildlife has value. Regulated hunting helped protect this habitat, sustain these kudu populations, and combat meat poaching that once threatened wildlife across many areas of Africa. It is a powerful reminder that conservation and hunting are deeply connected.

An unforgettable adventure. An ancient warrior. And one of the greatest game animals Africa has ever created.
