Meet Our Team

  • Trent Self

    Trent is a third generation outdoorsman from Golden Valley, North Carolina. Trent’s earliest memories include tagging along in the woods with his father, Terry, any chance he could. Trent learned at an early age what it meant to hunt ethically and safely year round, for multiple species. While Trent has been an avid whitetail and turkey hunter his whole life, in recent years Trent has developed a love for waterfowl and bird hunting. His black lab “Mose” can be found close by retrieving Mallards and Wood Ducks, or Pheasant and Quail.

  • Adam Yelton

    Adam is from Ellenboro, North Carolina and prides himself on doing his part to help the wildlife population in Western North Carolina. Predator hunting is Adam’s bread and butter, but he’s not one to let any tags go unpunched throughout the year. Adam facilitates our annual Carolina Tradition Christmas Charity Coyote Hunt to help local families in need during the holidays.

  • Austin Hollifield

    Austin is a third generation outdoorsman who only knows one way to hunt. Hard. Austin’s grandfather and father taught him how to hunt and show respect for the harvest, while also instilling in him the fire to learn how animals behave, and how to become a better hunter based off what you learn throughout the year. Austin loses sleep over just about all species he hunts, specifically turkey and coyote hunting. His passion pays off with filled tags more often than not. However he’s been known to oversleep a time or two.

  • Nick McNeil

    Nick lives to fish, specifically fly fish. Growing up in the high country of North Carolina, Nick was introduced to the outdoors at a young age. He vividly remembers fishing trips with his grandfather as a kid. He’d wake up in the middle of the night with a rush of adrenaline just thinking of the next day’s adventure. Nick fell in love with fly fishing for wild trout during his time as a student at Appalachian State, which took his passion for fishing to a whole new level. Nick’s expertise and drive to go where others won’t are clearly what sets him up for success each time on the water.
