Growing up in rural Georgia, I spent much of my spare time in the outdoors. I began hunting and fishing with my father when I was very young. I have harvested most game species in Georgia and have caught most of the freshwater fish found here as well. However, my ultimate passion is breeding, training, and hunting beagles. I have owned countless beagles as both pets and as hunting companions. I have participated in NKC/ARHA and a few AKC trials as well. I am the present secretary, past president, and a board member of CSRA Beagle Club. However, my favorite activity is running/hunting my beagles with my family and friends. In working with beagles so long, I have become familiar with all aspects of beagling and developed a passion for these wonderful little canines. My love for beagles has lead to them permeating my life and earning me the title "beagle man" in my social circles. Lord willing, I will own beagles until the day I die!
