Wildcat Archery Outdoors LLC is the dream of brothers Brett and Bryan Matthews.
We are Union Pipefitters by day and hard core hunters in all of our free time. We
started to video our hunting trips about 10 years ago and have become addicted to
the rush of capturing our hunts on tape.
We've grown up loving the outdoors in our home state of West Virginia. We enjoy
fishing and all forms of legal hunting but bow hunting is our passion. Since we work
for a living our hunts are not about the size of the horns, they are about the thrill of
the chase. We harvest what we can when we can. Like all of you we have very
limited time for recreation. Weekends, vacations, and the occasional sick day are
our hunt time. And if a holiday happens to fall on a weekday, well that's just icing on
the cake! All of our hunts are "do it yourself" or with a camp manager where
required (since not all places will let you do everything yourself) but for the most part
we're self sufficient.
We know everyone loves to see big bucks being taken on TV, but really, how often
does the everyday man or woman have a chance or the time to go somewhere you
can kill the monsters? That is not to say the pros don't hunt and hunt hard but you
must realize that's their living so they put the time in hunting one deer for weeks on
end. We've found that getting good footage on film is no easy task. The film we have
gathered over the past 10 years is marginal at best but when you hunt like we do, you
take what you can get and we are proud of all the animals we harvest. Since they are
all killed legally and ethically they are all trophies to us!

| We believe there is a difference between people who hunt and hunters. People who hunt can do so a few times a year and be satisfied, but to a hunter... "The hike is never too far, the weather never too bad, the game never too scarce, the ground never too cold for a goods night sleep, the hunt never too hard and the next quest is never soon enough. It's a life style that few can appreciate, and even fewer can enjoy". |
