January 19, 2012   |  Brow Tines and Backstrap

Most of my work on Realtree.com is done from my home office in Kentucky. Yep, I'm usually wearing pajamas (or long underwear during hunting season). Matches right up with the image you had, right? Anyway, pajamas aside, one of the biggest advantages of my home office is the opportunity for...
