EXHIBITORS AT FOOD PLOT PLANTING TRADE SHOW
EXPERTS SPEAKING AT EVENT
Chris Brackett
An Expert Whitetail Deer Strategist and Land Specialist.
Brackett is a woodsman who has spent several decades traveling across America studying and filming whitetail deer.
Food-plot architecture is Chris’s passion; he has created his own techniques to maximize wildlife encounters, and he’s excited to share them with you! He has a land-management Company, Chris Brackett’s GameChangers Land Co. where he consults all over the country for landowners that truly want to maximize the potential of a property.
Ray Reeves
Being raised on a farm and coming from a heritage of hunters, Ray Reeves not only has developed a passion for hunting wildlife, but more so creating habitat and food sources to retain them! Ray started the Genesis Wildlife Group which is a wildlife consulting, development, and land management group which consults thousands of acres of private lands and currently some of the largest and most respected groups in the industry such as the farms of Greg Ritz of Hunt Masters TV and the farm of Levi Morgan of Bowlife TV.
With over 35 years of experience in farming for wildlife, Ray also travels the east coast passing his experiences and knowledge on to those of like passion, sharing the principles of "Practical Plotting" on a level that can be beneficial to all.
Mike Hilde
An avid hunter and fisherman his whole life, Mike was in retail sales for 10 years before getting into manufacturing and business to business sales. For the past 2 years he has been a hunting blinds and ice houses sales specialist.
He prefers hunting deer, pheasants, duck, geese and coyote. A passionate fisherman, he loves to fish for walleye, crappie, bluegill and bass. He enjoys ice fishing more than he does open water fishing and loves bowfishing at night. "I've harvested several deer in my years of hunting, including my 10 point wall mounter I got when I was 15, but I consider my most successful hunt when I was with 5 of my friends down in Missouri on a snow goose hunting trip in February of 2018 and we shot 334 geese in a single day and shot 546 geese over the 3 day hunt."
Timmy Bolduc
Timmy Bolduc was raised in a deer hunting family in southern NH. In 2003 he started tracking whitetails. In the beginning he was a student, studying books by some of the tracking greats, watching dvd’s and soaking up as much knowledge as he could. Timmy has since made a name for himself consistently killing big bucks in the north woods year in and year out…he has gone from a student of tracking to teaching the techniques he’s learned though his many years in the big woods. In 2013 Timmy became a Registered Maine Guide. Aside from deer, he enjoys fishing with his family, rabbit hunting, turkey hunting, snowmobiling and anything that gets him outdoors! Timmy lives in southern NH with his wife, Andrea – also a Big Woods Bucks Team Member, and their 2 little boys.
Troy Kailbourne
Troy is currently the CEO of Buck Fever Synthetics and Rock Ridge Outdoors which is the parent
company to D.R. Outdoors Group (formerly Dead Ringer Hunting), Cupped Waterfowl, The
Grind Turkey and Rogue Ridge E-Bike brands and owner of Non Typical Life Outdoors LLC.
Troy is a passionate outdoorsman with a long history of hunting and fishing that stems from the North
Country of NYS as a 1994 graduate of SUNY Potsdam. Troy harvested his first bow whitetail here in the
town of Lisbon, NY with his college fraternity brother and has been hooked ever since.
Buck Fever Synthetics has existed for 30 years and is a leading synthetic attractant company in the outdoor industry. Given all the new
laws and regulations surrounding CWD in the hunting industry, and the outlawing of natural deer urine
across the whitetail states range, synthetics are the future of the industry.
