Kyle Stapleton

Born and raised in Southern Ohio, the outdoors has always been one of my biggest passions. I’ve been hunting and fishing throughout the Midwest all of my life. Anything from deer and turkey to pheasants and doves, I enjoy it all. For me, hunting is more than just harvesting a trophy animal, it’s the memories and moments that lead up to the harvest that truly make the hunt great. Of course I love being able to provide food and make delicious meals with the harvest, but that’s just an added bonus for me. Follow the action on Instagram

But their favorite time of year is when they’re out on the river in search of monster trophy catfish, mainly flatheads. Of course, like any fisherman knows, it’s not just about the fishing. It’s about the adventure, the stories and kickin’ back with a cold one in the company of friends.  Check out their adventures! Catch the action on Instagram

Tyler Vrbas

Tyler was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. From a young age, his family had him involved in everything outdoors: Boy Scouts, hunting, fishing, biking, motorcycling, snowmobiling, shed hunting, and like most, school sports. His passion for hunting started with small game which taught him the values of hunting. Transitioning to big game at the age of 12, he has hunted most all the big game Colorado has to offer. Loving to hunt, he has incorporated bow and muzzleloader hunting for more of an intimate encounter with nature. After college, he spent time in the fire service (Wild Land and Structure), following his father’s footsteps as a volunteer fireman.

Career changes brought him to Denver, CO where he met and married his wife. Fortunate for Tyler, she is from South Dakota (another Sportsman’s Paradise State). They now enjoy yearly trips to Mobridge, South Dakota for pheasant hunting and walleye fishing. He has been using Slumberjack products since he was in Boy Scouts and is proud to today to test and share all the products they sell.   Follow Tyler on Instagram
