Monster Raxx Trophy Minerals

I was born and raised in St. Anthony MN. Even though I grew up in the big city I was fortunate enough to have parents that had a love for the outdoors. Being able to hunt and fish from as far back as I can remember started something that would eventually turn into an obsession. This obsession that runs through my veins has no bounds, whether its hunting black bear in Northeastern MN, stalking giant whitetails in KS, or even battling monster muskies in Canada. Becoming a part of the Monster Raxx team and being able to help represent such great products is an honor and a high point in my endeavors within the outdoors industry.

My story is a little different than most. I did not grow up in a small town, nor did my family get me into hunting.  I was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota & I
still live in the Twin cities. I’m very proud of where I came from, but I am more excited about where I’m going.  When I was 20 I met my now husband Todd.  For the first few years, I would help him prepare for the different seasons, and during that time, I discovered how much I enjoyed just the “preparation” part of Hunting.  After seeing that passion, he invited me to hunt with him. I harvested my 1^st buck next to him. This passion later blossomed into a downright obsession.  I now share this along with my other passions which include Health & Fitness, Biking and spending time in the outdoors.  I feel very privileged to be a part of the Monster RAXX team and I look forward to all the adventures.

Born and raised in Central Iowa, farming and hunting is in my blood.  I've had several opportunities to hunt various places for all kinds of game, but whitetail hunting with a bow in Iowa is definitely my favorite.  Hunting for me has became a full blown 365 day a year addiction, I love the preperation and anticipation that comes with bow hunting.  Slinging countless practice shots all through the summer, trail cam photos, food plots, mineral sites, hanging stands, and day dreaming occupy my entire pre season.  Once season comes in I feel as if my eyes glow red, devoting every spare minute to sitting on stand waiting for that one long anticpated opportunity.  After season its straight back to the timber to find sheds and dream of next season, which never comes soon enough!

I was born and raised in Minnesota where my dad introduced me to hunting at a very young age.  I vividly remember as a young boy the excitement and anticipation of going on a hunt- regardless of the game.  My love for the outdoors continues to grow and I hunt just about all there is to be hunted.  As much as I love watching my dog work, my time alone sitting in the woods for whitetail has became one of my true passions.  Now that my three sons are of hunting age I have instilled in them the same love and respect for the outdoors and nothing beats taking them out to manage our land or spend the day hunting together.  I get just as excited today in anticipation of a hunt as I did when I was 5.  That’s what it’s all about.

I grew up in southeast Kansas and was fortunate to get introduced to whitetail deer hunting at a young age with my father. I currently live in Missouri but still hunt in southeast Kansas.  I think the neatest thing about whitetail deer hunting is that you never stop learning.  From patterning deer in the offseason to watching their behavior from the deer stand and even conversing with other deer hunting friends, the pursuit for the next wall hanger is truly a passion that is a lifelong learning experience. It excites me to one day pass on this great tradition to my two sons and hopefully teach them a thing or two.  In addition to chasing whitetails, I have harvested mule deer and elk, and am an avid duck hunter.

Hunting in west central Illinois has been a past time in my family for years.  My dad introduced me to hunting at a very young age,and I fell in love with the sport.  I have been blessed with the opportunity to hunt a variety of game.  Hunting has not only been a way for me to meet new friends but it is also a way to enjoy spending time with my family.   We own and manage several different hunting clubs.  This allows me to spend time hunting a lot of different game including deer, ducks, geese, doves, and coyotes.  It's spending time doing what I love, hunting.

Born and raised in the plains of Central Kansas, hunting was thought of as a way of life.  My parents never hesitated to show us the ways of the outdoor world.  However, I was a stranger to archery and deer hunting, until my husband Lance had the insane idea of me becoming a bow hunter!  Almost overnight the idea stuck.  Three years and 2 bucks later, saying that I “love” hunting mature whitetail deer would be an understatement.  I would call it more of an obsession.  Today I continue to prove myself as a hunter, learning from and watching the best in the industry, in hopes to one day pass on the love of the outdoors to our two beautiful daughters.

Born in Central KS, most of my early years were spent raising greyhounds and chasing coyotes. Coyote hunting wasn’t just hunting it was a way of life for my Dad and I. It wasn’t until I got married and started having children that I realized dog food, vet clinic and fuel bills weren’t part of a family budget. Not long after selling my dogs I bought my first bow. I had bow hunted in high school using my Dad’s Jennings Super T2, but was never serious about it.  So after a couple indifferent hunting seasons I introduced my wife Carla into my new growing interest. After 3 incredible years hunting together, we’ve developed a passion to learn, grow, and harvest mature deer on video.

I was born and raised in South Dakota and was very fortunate to be born into a family that is very passionate about hunting.  My dad is the one who got me into hunting at a young age.  Although I hunt anything I possibly can, hunting whitetails with my bow is my true passion.  Hunting whitetails is a year round deal for me.  My dad and I work very hard to keep the deer herd healthy and always have a food source available for them during the harsh winters of South Dakota.  I've always got my trail cameras out keeping a constant eye on the deer in the area.  I'm very anxious to get the Monster Raxx minerals out for our deer and also very excited to be a part of the Monster Raxx team!

I was born in Knoxville, Tennessee and raised in Manhattan, Kansas. I have grown up watching big bucks on the sides of roads in ag fields, but really started chasing them with the stick and string 5 years ago. My father bowhunted a lot during his college days, but things have changed so much since then I basically taught myself everything I know as far as bowhunting. Hunting really is a 365 day a year obsession for me. From shed hunting, running trail cams, summer scouting, and keeping up with my minerals, there is always something to be done. Bowhunting is my life, but I still make time to hunt deer with my revolver and chase turkeys and pheasants. Fishing for catfish and bowfishing take up the rest of my off time.

I grew up in Southwest Wisconsin, in a small town on the Wisconsin River. Hunting and fishing have always been a big part of my life; it’s something my whole family enjoys. In my youth, my dad often had to work a lot on Saturdays, so I mostly hunted and fished with my older brother, and both of us are still avid outdoorsmen today. I have been gun-hunting deer on my uncle’s property for over 35 years and bow-hunting for around 10 years. I have really gotten serious about bow-hunting in the last 3 years though, running cameras year-round, mineral sites and planting food plots. I think about whitetails all the time; bow-hunting them is becoming my obsession. I also enjoy turkey hunting, and shooting bow at indoor and outdoor 3D leagues.

I was born in Northeast Iowa into a family that has strong values in hunting. I am lucky to have family that enjoys the outdoors and the adventures that each outing brings. I have been hunting for over 24 years and each season is better than the last. Bowhunting is my preferred form of relaxation and frustration, but I will use whatever method need to have a great time in the deer woods. Recently I have been more invoved with managing my uncles farm in Iowa, this sense of accomplishment is something I cherrish greatly. I enjoy catalogging the trail cam photos and tracking the progress of the herd. With the help of my wife we are raising two great boys that I hope will follow in my footsteps of managing and enjoying hunting for many years to come. I can't wait to film their first hunts!

I have two farms in South West Wisconsin. I have been very passionate to the sport of deer and turkey hunting for thirty plus years. I am a father of three sons and have been happily married to my wife, Theresa, for twenty-six years. My biggest passion is hunting big mature whitetails primarily with archery equipment. We spend a lot of our time reviewing trail cam pictures and studying the placement of “kill stands” and food plots. We spend a great deal of time and resources on our management of the deer herd on and around our farms. We recently, in the past two years, have started to film some of our hunts. My biggest enjoyment is taking first time hunters (youth or adult) on their first successful hunts for deer or turkey! “The season never ends! It just leads to the next phase!”

My dad, Steve Sr., introduced me to deer hunting at an early age, and despite getting frostbit feet on my first hunt, I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve been lucky enough to hunt alongside three generations of family: my grandfather Cliff, my dad, and now my son & daughter, Jack & Elli. As the kids approach legal hunting age, developing a sound deer management program on my family’s hunting land has become a huge priority.

Growing up in Northwestern Wisconsin, I quickly learned my calling to the outdoors through the guidance of my father. He mentored me in all areas from fishing to hunting. A strong advocate of timber management, he encouraged and educated me to become a good steward of the valuable natural resource. I regularly pursue a range of game, from calling coyotes to hunting turkey. Some of the big game I have pursued includes black bear, moose, and woodland caribou. Of all the animals I have hunted, the elusive white tail deer remains my favorite.

I was introduced to hunting by my Dad at a very young age. I quickly fell in love with hunting and made it a huge part of my life. I also had a mentor take me under his wing as show me the ropes. And now I like to think I am on top of my game in the whitetail woods. With last year being my best so far by tracking a specific buck and being able to tag him. Hunting really is a 365 days a year "job" for me now. From mineral sites to food plots, tracking deer year round with trail cameras and adjusting stand set ups in the middle of June, I really am a whitetail junkie. I also love to hunt turkeys and pheasants. I can even be seen catching some fish in my spare time. But my true passion is whitetails with archery gear. It's just something about the close encounters and the adrenalin rush that keeps me coming back for more.

I grew up in Wisconsin my whole life. I currently live in the outskirts of Richfield, Wisconsin. I am currently a Union Millwright at P.W. Walsh & Company. I also am a guide/outfitter for Wicked Whitetail Outdoors in Southwest Iowa. My hobbies are hunting, bowfishing, four-wheeling, and Brewer games. Growing up on a farm in a small town made me a country boy at heart. My dad brought me into hunting at a very early age. He took me everywhere with him. From putting up tree stands, scouting for deer, or driving around in the back roads of Iowa, I knew this style of living was for me.

My Dad got me interested in whitetails at a young ae. I started off scouting, shed hunting, and helping with mineral sites. Last year at 10 years old I shot my first deer. This year I hope to shoot my first turkey, and shoot a buck with my bow on film. I also like to play Football, Basketball, and Baseball. During the summer I like to go the lake and fish.

I wasn't born with a bow in my hand, I blame my brother Jim for what I've become"... I honestly live for bowhunting Whitetails capable of making me do a double take. I've been chasing Whitetails for 33 years. The last 15 years I've hunted strictly with a bow, and for the last 10 of those years I've been picking one specific deer to haunt until I either succeed or simply run out of time. My bow season has no expiration date because it's one of those truly unique pastime's which actually has several other nessesary seasons in; and of itself. Closing day after I hang the bow is when my real season restarts. Since my hunting is a 365 day long event I've been fortunate enough to live for 23 yrs right in amongst the deer here in Minnesota. I'm recently a published Outdoor writer who has the same passion for photography and shooting video of deer in their natural settings as I do looking at a Pope & Young buck at full draw while thinking: "Checkmate."

Born and raised in Central Ohio I grew up hunting some of the best land in the country. Im a firefighter by trade which allows me the time to pursue my main passion which is chaising mature whitetails. I started chasing whitetails when I was 11 years old and took my first P&Y when I was 18. After taking my first P&Y a deadly passion set in to seek out the most mature whitetail on my properties and spend that season chasing those particular animals. I have since taken numberous P&Y animals and hunt at least 3 different states every year. Ive dedicated my passion for whitetails to mainly bow hunting and on top of that I self film which is by far one of the hardest things to accomplish. Every year I set a goal to build a relationship with a animal and then harvest him on film. Accomplishing these goals is very tough but using Monster Raxx minerals makes this VERY easy!!!

I was born in south central Kansas and feel very fortunate to be able to live and pursue trophy whitetails on my family farm. Putting a big buck on the ground requires countless hours of work, well before the season begins, and I enjoy every minute of it. Stand sets, trail cameras, mineral sites, food plots and scouting make for a busy off season and productive fall hunting. When time permits I enjoy predator, turkey and waterfowl hunting, as well as fishing for largemouth bass and flathead cats. When the antlers drop you can bet I'm on the trail for sheds. One of my favorite times of the year is when the bucks start growing their headgear and I'm able to watch them weekly with the trail cameras as they put on the inches. Any day spent outdoors is good but the days spent outdoors with a bow in my hand are a blessing.

Being from southeast Kansas, hunting big whitetails is in my blood. Around my house the season never ends. As soon as I pull the trigger on my release I'm thinking about how I can improve my chances next year of harvesting a mature deer. Between mineral site, shed hunting, and preseason scouting I put my time in every year to improve myself as a hunter, a conservationist, and an all round outdoorsman.

I was born, and raised in the small town of Cannon Falls, MN, and am extremely fortunate to have been brought up by a family who has a tremendous amount of respect, and passion for the outdoors. I started hunting at the age of 12 taking my first big game animal a P&Y black bear, that same year I also harvested a nice turkey, and whitetail deer. Since then I haven't looked back. Throughout the years I have harvested a number of animals, but quickly realized that whitetails are my true passion. I now find my self striving to better their habitat through various types of land management, and food plots. My dad and I are constantly searching for better ways to keep our deer herd non pressured, and healthy. I'm very excited to be apart of the Monster Raxx team, and cant wait for the years to come.
