Jake's Summer Reading List

Do y'all remember growing up with Summer Reading Lists in school? These were lists that were sent home with us before the end of the school year that consisted of books that we could read during the Summer and I believe there were prizes for the number you read or something like that. Not entirely sure, because I honestly didn't really ever participate that much with it. Nowadays though, I thoroughly enjoy reading a good book. I typically opt for a book that has a practical purpose though and will help me grow as a person to be a better husband and father. I'm not going to sit here and tell you that I am the best role model in the world or anything like that, but I like to think that I have my shit together in this life. Below, you will find a list of a few books that I feel helped make me the man that I am today. I get it, summertime is for hanging out by the pool with a cold one or six. But if you're looking to grow some too, give one or all of these books a try. - Ma...

A Little About Myself and This Blog

Are blogs still a thing? I don't even know, but I'm going to give this a shot. Already had to settle with a subpar blogspot address, so I don't feel that I'm off to a good start here.

I guess I will start with the basics. I am a thirty-something dad from South Carolina with an amazing fiance and two kiddos. I am an avid hunter and outdoorsman that collects guns, bourbon and watches. I am also a cop (8+ years). Don't expect many writings about law enforcement from me. There are plenty of guys doing that already and after working forty+ hours a week, the last thing I want to do when I'm off is write about it.

In my younger days, I dreamed of writing outdoors articles for hunting magazines. I sent a couple out with no bites and ultimately took different paths throughout my life that led me to where I am now.

I am looking at this as a super in depth digital journal. I like to consider myself a Jake of all trades. There is honestly no telling what I might write about on here, but it will likely involve bourbon reviews and bourbon hunting, gun stuff, watch stuff and of course writings about hunting, the outdoors and adventures with my family.

I would be lying, if I said there wasn't some part of me that hopes the guys at Field Ethos somehow stumble across this and offer me a chance to write something for them.

If this sounds like something you would be into, feel free to read any of my stuff. If not, thanks for stopping by.
