Alan Dykes- Publisher

Alan is originally from the east coast and moved out to Kansas in the fall of 1996. He has been an avid hunter and fisherman ever since he was a small boy growing up in a rural farming community on Maryland’s Lower Eastern Shore. In his efforts to help introduce others to the outdoor sports, Alan has been a Maryland Senior Hunter Safety and Bowhunter Education Instructor, volunteered as a Bowhunter Education Instructor for the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge and served as an archery instructor for local Somerset County, Maryland 4-H programs.

Jade- Avid Hunter

Jade was born and raised in Kansas. Much like Alan, he has also been a hunter and fisherman since he was a boy. Raised on a farm, he has much appreciation for being outdoors. Jade was a member of 4-H growing up, and a member of Cowley County Shooting Sports. He is now an instructor and volunteer in Cowley County Shooting Sports, helping introduce kids to the wonderful world of sport shooting

Michelle- Novice Hunter

 Michelle was born in Maryland and  moved to Kansas when she was 4 years old. She happens to be Alan’s daughter, and Jade’s wife. She loved shooting archery for fun since she was little, and is a newbie to hunting. Her 1st time in a blind was in 2018. She fell in love with being outdoors, enjoying all that nature has to offer, and finds peace in the art of the hunt. She loves to go out hunting coyote and deer. One of Michelle’s hobbies is photography, so she’ll come and photograph Jade and Alan’s hunts. She finds spending time with her Father and Husband a wonderful added bonus to hunting.
