Brett Fritze Since an early age. My grandfather and I spent countless hours in the woods and waters from here to the Northern most tip of Maine. My infatuation with the outdoors has since taken me across this beautiful country and back, chasing big game. This passion has culminated into a career in the archery business that I started in my early 30's , when I opened Archery Plus, a full service archery store in Spencer, a. I am currently expanding into firearms sales also . I have recently acquired a new hunting partner in my stepson Tylor . What a rush ! I now enjoy it more than ever . In April 2008 , Josh and I decided to take it a bit further and delve into videotaping our hunts . We are greatly enjoying this adventure and are looking forward to inspiring the young and old to support this great heritage. Take your kids and create a memory and bond you'll never forget ! See you in the woods. Josh Sullivan My name is Josh Sullivan, I started passthru outdoors to show what the Northeast has to offer anyone who decides to put in the time to experience it. My season lasts year round as I love to be in the woods anytime I can. I have been lucky enough to hunt in nearly every state from Delaware through Vermont with Great success and with great friends. I look forward to our upcoming seasons as a team and the chance to share all of our hunts with everyone. Douglas Scribner I live in Sutton, MA with my beloved wife Karen and my Chocolate Lab, Autumn. After growing up in the small town of Upton, MA on a small farm, I experienced different kinds of wildlife all around me. Although I didn't take interest in hunting until my late teens, I was pretty keen on the wild game that surrounded me. I was introduced to bow hunting by a friend of mine in high school (1982) and that was the beginning of my passion for bow hunting. Since then I have used 3D and spot archery to fine tune my game. I have competed in 3D tournament archery at the highest level throughout the Northeast and many other parts of the country for most of the 1990's and have been involved in the archery community for the better part of 17 years. My bow hunting passion has taken me to several states including CT, PA, VT, MA, and NH. I hope to include several new states in the near future while filming with Passthru Outdoors. I can't express how much this opportunity with Passthru Outdoors means to me. It hope it can take my hunting experiences to the next level and beyond. It seems like a dream come true for all the hard work I have put into archery over the years. I look forward to all the hunting experiences I can put on film for you viewers to share. Gary Girouard. Prostaff I live in Nashua N.H.. I've been hunting with my dad since about the age of 12 . Mostly a duck and pheasant hunter, it wasn't till the early 90s when I started bowhunting for deer . After I saw my first deer from a treestand at at about 15 yards and missed the shot I was hooked . I never thought you could get so close to such an animal. My friends will tell you now I spend more time hunting than I do at home. If your looking for me after September 15th, you had better be looking up in the trees because thats where I'll be. Paul Mavilia Prostaff I started hunting at about twelve years of age with my dad (god rest his soul), mostly being a bird dog when the dogs weren't available, "Paul, get in that swamp, and push out some birds!". That's all i can remember, but i would get rewarded at the end of the day when my dad would pass me his Browning and let me shoot doves by the dozen as they flew over the cleared corn fields of western mass. I also learned a ton from my older brother Andrew (jeez, god rest his soul too) from tying fishing knots to shooting BB guns and pretty much anything else that involved the outdoors. I have been an avid hunter/fisherman since. From slamon river trips to Oswego county N.Y. to waking up at 2 AM. with sully and making the trek to lower Connecticut to shoot (at) some early season deer. We're in the woods every chance we get. Carrying the camera with us to try to catch some of the action on film. So in closing i hope we can bring you some entertaining footage in these upcoming seasons. Thanks for reading! Jarred Ebert.. Prostaff I started hunting with my father before I could hold a bow or gun. I learned everything from my dad from hunting, fishing, to the job I do today third generation electrician). This is how we became best friends. I remember him teaching me how to shoot with an old wooden long bow and after loosing all his arrows we made them out of tree branches. Even with my fathers guidance my first few years were still learning experiences. I've now been hunting, fishing, and anything to keep me in nature for at least 25 years and I wouldn't change a thing. I now have a family of my own 2yrs old Jake 1yr old Madalyn and I've already started teaching them everything I can and even got some more help from PAPA. Thanks for everything dad. Shane Brien. Prostaff I am 35 yrs old born and raised in Worcester MA. I have been married for the past 17 years to Kathy and have two teenagers Katelyn and Shane Jr. I am proud to say my son Shane just got his first kill a 200 lb wild boar. It must be in the blood!! I started bow hunting when I was 18. Growing up in the city with no hunters in my family to influence me. I don't know how I caught buck fever! But I do know its incurable and gets worse with age hopefully, watching our experiences at passthruoutdoors you will catch it too .Working with passthruoutdoors is a challenge I look forward to . I am the owner of a small landscaping company in MA which helps me to schedule work around hunting so. I can spend plenty of time in the woods. Hunting is my passion it never stops. Scouting is a must all year round. Marco Zompetti Whether it's during the hunting season or in the off season there is nothing I think about more than the aspects of hunting afield, scouting or the sportsman camaraderie that goes along with hunting. Sportsman's activities are my true passion in life. It's what I crave for seven days a week, twenty four hours a day and three hundred and sixty five days a year. I believe that the dedication and devotion to the sport of hunting one puts forth, will create memories for a lifetime! It's the challenge of the hunt, every hunt is different to me and trying to adapt to outdoors, sharing hunting excitement with friends and being a successful hunter keeps me PUMPED up about hunting! Jeremy Fontaine I am a native New Englander whose passion for the outdoors was passed on from my family, especially my father who always took me with him to the local sportsman’s club for different events, as well as taking me fishing whenever he could. My first hunting experience was hunting pheasant for many years with my father. I was immediately hooked, and wanted to hunt as often and as much as I could. In high school I was introduced to archery by my friend and current teammate Rob Cote. He taught me the ropes of bow hunting whitetails, and helped me get my first deer. The rest is history. Over the years I had always wanted to share my encounters with family and friends, so I brought the video camera scouting and soon found myself filming my hunts in western mass. Four years later Rob and I had the opportunity to compete on a national TV show called the Proteam challenge. This was a great experience that Rob and I learned a lot from. I have harvested animals from Maine to Texas, but my heart has always been in New England woods. I am excited and looking forward to being apart of Passthru Outdoors to showcase New England hunting at its best. Rob Cote Hi I'm Rob Cote, a New England (MA) native, and obsessed bow hunter. I've been into hunting since I was 10, when my father started taking me into the woods scouting for deer sign making me walk in his tracks behind him to teach me how to walk quietly in the woods. When I was 14 I was able to hunt in a tree stand on my own for a Massachusetts Youth Day hunt. Not having my father there to critique how quiet I was or how much I was moving, I turned to fast to my right only to scare away a nice 3 1/2 year old 6 point that was literally 10 yards from me and walking right under the stand! The following year when I was 15 I hunted religiously. Every day after school in the tree, every Saturday, in the tree. On the last day of bow season I arrowed the 142lb 7 point that I believe was the same one I saw the season before on the youth day hunt. Since that day I have been obsessed with hunting, dedicating as much time as possible in my schedule to be in the woods scouting, hunting, or shooting my bow with my dad or my friends. I took up Turkey hunting two years ago and lucky for me I have had great success. Three years ago I got my friend Jeremy into bow hunting whitetails, and soon into Turkey hunting, and then we decided to pursue filming our hunts. We have now taken our hunting to a whole other level, fruitlessly spending our money on gear, tags, scouting and researching every chance we get away from work, all in preparation for New England Spring Turkey and Fall Deer season. I look forward to sharing our upcoming hunts with you the viewer as we further our experiences of hunting New England's public land. I am truly obsessed and dedicated to the challenge our favorite past time presents year in and year out. And yes, I still spend Sundays and some Saturdays deer hunting with my father every season. Keith Fritze I was born, raised and still live in Spencer, MA. I've been hunting since I was 14 with my father, older brothers and grandfather. I owe my knowledge of the woods and wildlife to spending my formative years listening and watching these experienced hunters. I have two careers. Physical Therapy pays the bills and working as a Bow Technician / NAA Level 2 Certified Archery Instructor Archery Plus is my passion. I enjoy being around bows and hunters more than anything else. I am passing on my love of the outdoors and hunting to Emily, my young daughter, who enjoys nothing more than traipsing through the woods to check sign, cameras and joining me in the treestand. Filming our hunts has brought my outdoor pursuits to the next level and I look forward to sharing future adventures with all of you.
