Hi there - thanks for the invite! I was born and raised in eastern Canada but have lived in Arizona for 20 years. Gainfully employed but should note that I have been a freelance outdoor writer and editor since 1984. I have my own site and contribute to various other national sites as well. Haven't been to Africa yet, but who knows what the future holds?
 
Welcome to AH.
 
Hello and Welcome!

Hope you get to the African Continent in the near future!
 
Welcome to AH Marshall!
 
Welcome to AH! Where in AZ do you live?
 
Welcome to the forum Marshall! So what is your hunting experience and what do you write about?
Warning...never go to Africa because you’ll then have to go back again and again! Just thought I’d give you a fair chance:ROFLMAO::rolleyes:!
 
Welcome to AH sir!

Thanks all. Grew up in eastern Canada hunting small game and deer mostly. Moose once or twice (hard to get drawn). Then the same thing in northern Maine. Arizona is amazing with Coues and Mule Deer, Antelope, Bison, Bighorn Sheep, Elk, Bear, Lion and an abundance of small game.

Most of my writing is feature stories, along with product reviews, company profiles, interviews, etc. I do free writing for conservation groups and I pick up some private writing/editing work here and there (web content, brochures, tech manuals, newsletters, etc) but that's not something I actively promote. I'm pretty busy with my full-time job so I write because I enjoy it, not as a business per se.

I know what you mean about Africa; I did my first saltwater fishing last year in Panama and it was life-changing. I've got that bug bad, now......

Shhh, you're making it that much harder for me to get drawn. :)

Hi Marshall, welcome to AH !
 
Welcome to AH! Enjoy the site.
 
Welcome aboard Marshall. I'm from the mid-west Michigan to be exact and have waterfront property so I fish some. I too have been salt-water fishing and enjoyed it. Mark my words, hunting Africa will be more of a game changer than deep sea fishing was.
 
Welcome..... I have also fished the Panama waters. Absolutely amazing and I will go back.
Africa Awaits you, Marshall!!!!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!
