Hello, my name is Justin and I am the resident admininazi here at HuntingNet.com. I am responsible for banning people, editing posts, deleting posts, andusing my powers for own personalgain. Although I must admit, it hasn't gotten me very far.

I am 27 years of age and live in the suburbs of Chicago where I grew up. I have known Mr. dukemichaels since 7th grade. We naturally became friends as we were the only two kids who wore sweatshirts with pictures of deer and/or fish on them every day. (and we wonder now why we never had girlfriends back then. ) We spent much of our younger years exploring local fishing holes and woodlots, and I must admit we were much better at catching big bass than we were at shooting deer.

I am getting married on September 27th of this year to a wonderful, and somewhat gullable, woman who has most certainly changed my life for the better. Some day we will have children and I will teach them the ways of being an Internet toughguy.

My "real" job is managing an IT Consulting/Web Design firm which currently consists of 11 employees including myself. We specialize in IT consulting for small to mid-sized businesses here in Chicagoland, and we build websites and customweb applications (like what Germ does)for a variety of businesses including many within the hunting industry. When I'm not doing that I've spent the past 4 years trying to make HNI the best hunting website in the world . However, now that we have sold the company my focus has shifted towards our next endeavor which will be Bowhunting.com, launching sometime this fall (hopefully).

I enjoy sitting in a treestand freezing my butt off waiting for a chance to shoot a deer with my bow and arrow, playing softball (respect to peakrut, he is much better than I), photography, mountain biking, playing Guitar Hero III, fishing, enjoying some tasty beverages with my friends, going to rock concerts and moshing with a bunch of skinny jean-wearing 17 year olds, and listening to Huey Lewis and the News.
