Jennifer Dunkin

The most commonly asked question Jennifer Dunkin is forced to repeatedly answer is "How did some one like yourself get so heavily involved in the sport of bow-hunting". Her answer isn't like most as Jennifer's passion for hunting actually began in Zimbabwe in 1996. It was at the suggestion and coercion of her attorney who is an avid bow hunter that she tag along and give it a try. Jennifer's more than adventurous side immediately took charge and once convinced there was no stopping her. After taking a wart hog, wildebeest and impala, she knew she was hooked for life. She's now been to Africa 5 times on safari and has become a force to be reckoned with in the world of women's bow-hunting. From Fly fishing to bow fishing to wing shooting and everything in between, Jennifer's love for the outdoors only grows stronger as she continues to represent women hunter's world wide in what was once thought to be predominantly a "man's sport". Her many accomplishments in the sport of bow-hunting have currently landed her a spot on the Flies and Fletching Outdoor Pro-Staff where she continues to gain notoriety for sportswomen everywhere. Jennifer has also appeared on many well known outdoor television shows such as Safari Hunters Journal, Texas Trophy Hunters and Outdoor Expeditions TV. While Jennifer still loves going out West every fall for Antelope, Mule Deer and Elk... she'll be the first to admit that there is no place she'd rather be than hunting Whitetail in her home state of Georgia with the gang at Flies and Fletching...and there's no place we'd rather have her.

Roland Whitt

Born country...raised in Athens, Texas...Full of ambition with a passion for music and the great outdoors is how one would best describe Roland Whitt. Like most, at a young age his interests were in sports but as time passed those interests changed and Roland rapidly turned towards music as a form of self expression. In attempts to tease his sisters he would purposely change the lyrics of their favorite songs and sing them over and over again as if he were the original artist. He must have known then that country music was in his sole. Roland Whitt's unique style brings a new, refreshing and exciting approach to the country music scene. His song's and stage presence are reminiscent of the authenticity portrayed by country greats like Marty Robbins, George Strait and Conway Twitty. Roland sings about the simple things in life and enjoys spending time with family and friends. It's there that he finds his inspirations for new songs and lyrics for upcoming album releases. Aside from singing, songwriting and performing on stage Roland loves to hunt and fish. Growing up in East Texas those interests go hand in hand and Roland has some pretty impressive credentials when it comes to massive White tails. Outside his home state of Texas he loves spending time in Colorado, whether hunting for Elk and Deer or just searching for sheds. Roland is currently an active member of the Flies and Fletching Outdoors Pro-Staff and when not singing country songs he can be found deep in the woods, pulling or picking a string back with the folks at F&F. www.rolandwhitt.com
