Yes, he is lucky in the sense that his job is basically the same as our favorite hobby. I don't think he just walked into Easton or Hoyt's offices and said "I love to hunt, wanna sponsor me?" He has written a lot, and is a good writer. He has a gift for self-promotion, but also has to work at it to keep that wallet fatter than the rest of us. If he can go to show after show to keep the $ part of his job going, and can take the time to talk with people before a seminar, it says something positive about his nature. I used to be jealous over the amount of time the man gets to hunt, but I've given that up. After all, hunting is a big part, but not all, of his job. Glad you got to meet him, Atlasman.
