Currently I reside on an acreage outside of Manilla with my wife, Angie Julin, and our children. Hunter, Gauge, Avery, and Timberlynn. I have a huge passion for the outdoors, if you couldn’t tell by my children’s names. This all comes from the numerous people that I’m surrounded by in my life. Including all of the deceased before me. Starting with my Grandpa Irv when I was 5-8 years old just drivi
ng around looking for ring-necked pheasants and fishing for 4in bluegills. Keith Hugeback for getting our family into the sport of whitetail deer hunting at the age of 12 and all the fishing excursions we had. These guys always showed me that friendships within the outdoors always outweighed the harvest at the end of the day!! Last but not least my oldest brother Adam Julin for all of the countless times spent with him in the outdoors from chasing pheasants, to deer hunting, and your true passion fishing. Adam, you taught me to patience with my adventures, yet persistent that next ones just around the corner. Love you Brother, see you in the stand=). My parents for owning “Arcadia Meats,” which I spent my childhood helping around the meat locker especially in the fall when deer season came along. Every year was exciting to help skin, bone, and process deer and to see what the biggest rack of the year was to be. When I am not in the outdoors or with my family. I do have a day job that keeps me extremely busy as well. I own and operate my own construction company 1x4xAll, Zorts Fireworks and taxidermy which I do European deer mounts and full shoulder mounts. Now that you can see the passion I have for the outdoors, you can truly understand why they call me “Iowas Wild Child.” God bless you in your pursuit of happiness in the outdoors!
