With his guidance, my scouting, stand selection, mobility, and preparation games have all leveled up. I’m hunting with intention again and having more fun in a tree than I have in a long time. Aaron’s a serious student of whitetail behavior, a willing giver of the knowledge he’s earned, and one of the most humble and sincere people I’ve known.”
