Bio:
Ryan Aller is an Oklahoma native who's been involved in hunting all his life. He loves deer hunting using all methods, but he does not limit himself to deer alone. Ryan hunts a variety of game throughout the year so his posts will not just be about deer hunting. They will include dove, quail, turkey, pheasant, hogs, bowfishing, ducks, and geese. In addition to hunting, he has an addiction to hunting equipment and loves to share his thoughts, good or bad, with other hunters. Ryan works full time as a contractor for the Department of Homeland Security developing web-based training for Customs and Border Protection Agents. He is married and just recently had his first son Noah, whom he looks forward to sharing the outdoors with when he gets a little older.
