What are ya'll's Backgrounds?
If you don't mind by me asking. Farm Boy? City Slicker
? Just raised in the country?
I was raised on my grandparent's dairy farm in Ohio. This is where i learned to hunt, fish and drive w/ trailers. I road broncs though highschool and still do a little horse traineing here and there for friends. I now play college baseball and am working on a double major in Environmental Science and Biology.
I'm interested to see what kind of backgrounds everyone has!

Born and rasied on a 90 acre "farm" in the sense that we own the land, do some mild farming, but the majority is leased to a local farmer. Grew up in a hunting and fishing family, been doing it ever since. Simple as that.

I didn't grow up on a farm but I have cows and farmland all around me so I got exposed to it. I have fished ever since I can remember and started hunting seriously about 5 years ago. I am still a much much better fisherman than hunter but I love them both.

Born and raised on our 260 acre farm in beautiful Virginia. Moved to the city for two years when I transferred schools and it really made me appreaciate the outdoors a lot more, and now I am engulfed with it.

RE: What are ya'll's Backgrounds?
Didn't live on a farm but worked the family farm. Grew up around and on horses. Made/threw hay all my life, worked the ground, drove the tractors. Lived on a quiet street in a town of roughly 3000 at best. Graduation class had 119 people. Still live and work (Telco field) in the area but my log home is 4.5 miles out of town and in the woods. Close enough but still far enough to be exactly right.
