Looking at these 3 small stickers today made me chuckle. I have always been a zero sticker on my windows type of girl,ever since I got my first car at least 16. It just wasn't for me..so I thought.

How do I now have 3?! 😜

The 1st - Norman Houndsmen Outfitters. This one my husband and I created together. His love of the outdoors grew my love for the outdoors and everything it has to offer. Of course, he got his first 2 hounds before we were together, so technically, he started it before I was in the picture. For 15 years, we've created such an amazing experience for clients and our life. Getting to guide cougar and bear hunts is by far the best experience I will ever get. One day we'll be the grandparents tellin' grands 'back in my day- we walked up hill both ways, In knee deep snow, following the hounds'😅 To be with my husband every day, even better! Although, there were days where I tracked, aka napped, head on the window 'looking for tracks' while Colby tracked both ditches. 😂
The hounds love every minute of it, and the look on the hunters face hearing the hounds work, seeing such amazing animals up close and in their environment, will forever be my favorite part of any hunt.

The 2nd- my business. I have been doing it for a handful of years for friends and family. Dissecting, and seeing all of the parts that make a living creature is absolutely mind blowing to me. I LOVE IT. Every part, the bloodier the better honestly. 🤣 I've always been the girl to skin the pigs, cows, deer, heck even pluck the chickens (honestly did that just to watch them chase around the farm with no head. It'll forever be a core memory. 😁 Sorry not sorry! It let's me do what I love, create art and forever a physical memory of the hunt for my client.

3rd- if you have any working dogs, Go to their page and check them out! We get all our gear, vet packs and training systems to keep them safe while doing hunting. They are the easiest to deal with, even in a different country. Hands down 🙌🏻 the best! 🐕

Looking at my window, I don't just see stickers.
I see how blessed,I sometimes forget I am, to create and live this amazing life.💛

Life's been a little crazy lately, so getting to take the block and bow out for an evening felt great. I am very rusty as it's been a hot minute since shooting though 🫣. I hit the block a handful of times at 40yards, which I am proud considering the time in-between shooting, but also very frustrated as I like to be good the minute I do anything 😅. I am grateful that my husband, comes to range, help me adjust and just spend time as he's down from shoulder surgery. 💛

Glad I could count on the guys down at for getting her all tuned back up. Big shout-out to them! If you have any archery needs or questions do not hesitate to contact them!

Porcupines are fascinating creatures, known for their unique defense mechanism - quills! When threatened, they raise their quills to deter predators. Did you know that these quills are actually modified hairs, and they can easily detach to stay with the attacker? 🤯

✨ Fun Facts:

Porcupines are excellent climbers and can often be found in trees! 🌳
They primarily eat leaves, fruits, and bark. Talk about a plant-based diet! 🍃🥭
Porcupines are nocturnal, so you might not spot them during the day. 🌙

The beauty of an elk lies not only in its physical attributes but also in the connection it fosters to nature and wildlife. As an artifact of the outdoors, it can inspire wonder, respect, and admiration for the creatures that roam our forests. Whether as a piece of art, a trophy of a hunting achievement, or a way to celebrate the wilderness, the elk skull stands out in its elegance and significance.

The natural coloration of elk skulls can vary but typically includes shades of beige to light brown, with intricate textures and patterns on the bone. When cleaned properly, the skull can exhibit a beautiful shine, enhancing its organic beauty.

The skull’s design features unique characteristics, including pronounced brow ridges and a broad, flat nose. The intricate structure can attract those with an appreciation for natural art and anatomy.

It was an absolute pleasure being able to bring this animal to its all natural glory for this client and for it to be a forever memory in their home.

Cow and bull heads may not seem like alot of work, but those horn sheaths will test you every step of the way.
Two people to get them off with the crazy suction power they have, all the disinfecting, drying (shrinking a bit) then getting them nice and smooth and sitting in the proper position. 😅
Well worth the work though 💪🏻
