Hi, first off here at Camo King Outdoors we would like to thank you for liking our page and helping us and our sport grow. Summer of 2012 I decided at the young age of 19 I wanted to start to give back to the sport of hunting. Already at this young age it has me given me more memories then I can remember from killing my first deer, missing that once in a life time shot, to just sitting around camp
the night before opening day and listening to the same deer stories every year that never seem to get old. I've been hunting since I turned 12, but I have been going out in the woods with my Dad and Uncle Paul since I've been 6. The friendships and bonds you make from hunting are really like no other. So I decided to get some of my hunting buddies and my Dad the one who taught me everything I know together to produce a hunting DVD to share our great memories and hopefully encourage youth to get involved. Because everyone knows if you grow up around hunting or get involved at a early age you'll get addicted. I truly believe there is no greater sport to get the youth involved in.This page is made for us WNY hunters to stay involved with the sport all year around, meet new people, share a place just to get away and talk hunting with other hunters.

For me, hunting just came naturally. Although my Dad doesn't hunt, I was brought up in the outdoors. My Grandpa bought a cabin in Allegany, NY the year after I was born to ensure his family had a getaway from the world and to experience the woods. Along with my Grandpa, my Uncle Todd really took me under his wing and brought me into the hunting world. He's taught me everything I know, and we've been hunting buddies for as far back as I can remember. I started hunting small game at 12 and big game at 14 with the bow, but I was in the tree as soon as i could get myself into the stand. I witnessed a lot of bad luck my first couple years, not harvesting an animal until I was 19. My luck turned around on opening day of shotgun season of 2011, when I harvested a 400 pound black bear at the same property where it all started; our cabin in Allegany. As much as I would have liked to record a couple kills in my first seasons, coming up empty handed taught me to enjoy and appreciate the entire hunting experience, not just the kill. I am a hunting ju**ie to the core and will never stop loving the sport until the day I die. I hope we can share our incredible hunting moments and memories with all our fans now and for years to come!

Frank Biondo- Hunting didn't start at an early age for me as it did for my son Spencer. I hunted small game and big game with my dad. I did get a 3 point buck when hunting with my father in Allegany State Park, since then my father has passed. He and my Uncle Paul taught me a lot. Many years after my father, my Uncle Paul and I enjoyed our own hunting memories. Now my enjoyment is having my son with me. Spencer has learned so much about hunting deer, the student has become the teacher! There is nothing more enjoyable than taking your son or daughter out hunting and fishing. The bonds that grow from learning and depending on each other are forever. I cant wait until I can take my children's children out hunting to enjoy those same special times I had with them. Spencer will always be my number 1 hunting partner! I also enjoy taking Spencer and his friends out hunting with us. Showing today's youth how to hunt and fish makes a better person out of you and them. Lets all get involved so we can enjoy this sport for many years to come. Craig Douglas – I have been fishing since I can remember and I have always enjoyed the outdoors. At age 17 I took the hunter safety course and started hunting with my high school friends. I knew nothing about hunting and my first couple times out, I froze, did not see any deer, and could not understand why anyone enjoyed hunting. It was a very bad hunting experience. I did not hunt for a long time until I met Frank Biondo. Frank and I shared a common interest in fishing and the outdoors and he was very passionate about hunting. We went fishing a few times and became very close friends. He convinced me to give it another try. I purchased my first shot gun and my first set of camouflaged clothing. Although, I still froze my A$ # off (Shiver me timber as Spence used to call me), I saw more animals in the woods and it was completely different experience. Frank took the time to teach me about hunting and became my mentor. Each year I would hunt with Frank and Spencer and each year we would share new experiences. This is what hunting was all about. After a few years of hunting, it all came together, I harvested my first deer and I did it with a bow. It was most exciting thing I had ever done. I am forever grateful to Frank for including me in his hunts with his son Spencer. Hunting became a big part of who I am because someone took the time to show me the ropes. Todd Homberger
