After six long years of waiting I finally drew the tag of a lifetime: Limited Entry Any Bull!
First, a little bit about me. My name is John and I am a native of Utah. I come from many generations of family hunting adventures. My dad took me hunting as a child and taught me the skills of being a successful and ethical hunter. I grew up hunting deer with my dad along with ducks, geese, doves, pheasants and every other upland game. My number one passion was bird hunting and second was big game. That soon would change after I lost my best friend and hunting partner-Gunner, a chocolate lab.

And yes, that was my rig and technique back in the day. A Deseret Industries bike that I didn't worry about getting stolen that would help me get back into the more isolated and distant marshes.
After Gunner past away bird hunting just wasn?t the same, and it was a lot more work retrieving the birds.
I started venturing out more and chasing big game with a muzzleloader and then was influenced by some friends to pick up a bow. Bow hunting helped me to gain an even greater respect for wildlife, their keen senses and incredible intelligence.
For the past eight and a half years I have dedicated my time to school, work and family. I graduated with my bachelor?s degree in science of nursing (yes I am a male nurse? just like Greg Focker), completed the critical care internship at the University of Utah and shortly thereafter went to graduate school to complete a Family Nurse Practitioner degree. During this time I worked as a Registered Nurse in the Neuro ICU along with all of the other ICUs at the University of Utah. Needless to say, time for hunting was inexistent, or very limited to only a few days a year. This year I graduated and finally have some time to go play in the hills again. So, for all of you that are battling the books and studying in school; don't give up and keep at it! There is an end and life is much better after your hard work! My wife and children have been very supportive and are excited for me to finally have a chance to fulfill my lifelong dream of chasing big, stinky, bugling bulls.
I don't think there is any other quality
so essential to success of any kind as the
quality of perseverance. It overcomes
almost everything, even nature.
