ADVERTISING: Content will always be king

Great words and pictures are still the golden ticket to marketing success. If nobody's reading, listening or watching, they'll never see your ad message.

Takes one to know one

Want to talk to avid participants? Be one. Authentic, relevant expertise establishes credibility ... for sponsors, too.

I get to play with dogs ...

Passion: It’s the basis for everything else: I live, eat, breathe bird hunting, fly fishing, target shooting, camping, rural travel and life.

I am also the luckiest guy in the world, because I get to share that world via my TV shows, books, magazine articles, videos, speeches and podcasts.

That volatile mix of passion, expertise and fun is contagious, grabbing hold of like-minded individuals' attention ... becoming a showcase for partners' marketing messages.

As a former educator and performer, sharing that passion is second nature. "To know it is to love it" has relevance in the outdoors too: only someone who lives and loves it, can protect and conserve it.

I'm all-in on that.

I craft engaging stories

I get to play with dogs ...

I've supplied content to the leaders (still do!) and create it for my followers and those who want to reach them. National and regional publications, business newspapers and every major network that offers outdoor content including Discovery, NBC Sports and History Channel.

My writing has appeared in Field & Stream, Outdoor Life and Sports Afield magazines, all major fly fishing and bird-hunting magazines, and a growing list of travel and lifestyle magazines including NW Travel & Lifestyle, Hook & Barrel and Trailer Life.

Books include Fun Family Outdoor Ideas, What the Dogs Taught Me, and Training and Hunting Bird Dogs.

And I've written thousands of scripts for national television, syndicated and satellite radio, and video. Examples: Boy Scouts of America, National Shooting Sports Foundation, National Sporting Clays Association.

And when you need something fast, I'm your guy.

Sound & motion

I pioneered high-definition outdoors television, creating and producing four series for Outdoor Channel including the first two in the industry. With nine different television series on everything from family/kids topics to the Boy Scouts of America and "trigger tourism," I've acquired a bit of perspective and expertise in direction, script writing and visual storytelling. Mine were also the only hunting shows to air on NBC Sports and Discovery Channel.

I've also been crafting compelling, engaging educational videos since long before TikTok. And the Upland Nation podcast is growing exponentially by the week, thanks to our combination of proprietary and traditional distribution platforms.

I created and produced nationally-syndicated talk shows for the leading outdoors magazines Field & Stream and Outdoor Life, and now, for SiriusXM Satellite Radio.

And when Hollywood calls, they're buying my stock video footage.

Your next speaker?

I learned the hard way; so your audience doesn't have to

I've logged thousands of media episodes on my own series, and served as spokesman for everyone from John Madden to business, trade, and political organizations. As a graduate of the University of Hard Knocks (and with three music degrees from bonafide universities), my perspective is a bit different ... a breath of fresh air for any audience.

At the podium

Presentations and speeches for groups from Pheasants Forever to the National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers, Outdoor Writers Association of America, C.C. Filson, Becoming an Outdoorswoman, governmental and political groups, North American Gamebird Association, International Sportsmen's Expositions, and North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association. I've shared my hard-earned knowledge and what little wisdom I garnered as a result!
