My name is Joe Bates and i am from the great state of Ohio. I've lived in Muskingum County Ohio my whole life and have grew up hunting here and in Cochocton County Ohio with my father and hunting partner, Aaron Dailey, and living the outdoor lifestyle. I am also enrolled at the Ohio University Zanesville campus where i am studying to become and RN. In the past year my hunting partner, Aaron Dailey, and i have purchesed a sony camera and have begun filming our hunts. However, this year we are upgrading to the new cannon XH-A1, which will able us to do more with the filming aspect of hunting. This year should be great.
