Cupped Wings Arkansas duck guides

I am 48 years old, married and have 3 beautiful daughters. When I am not guiding I am working on getting ready for the next AR Waterfowl Season or guiding saltwater fisherman in southeast Louisiana at Hook Dat Fishing Charters. I have been hunting waterfowl since the age of 9 and guiding for the last 25 years. I have chased waterfowl from Manitoba Canada to Venice, LA up and down the Mississippi Flyway. I now do all of my hunting in Northeast AR because THIS IS WHERE THE DUCKS ARE! I enjoy sharing my passion of the outdoors with others. With 3 daughters, I am a big advocate for getting kids and women involved in our hunting tradition. I will do what it takes to make sure you have the best hunting experience of your life.

I am 33 years old born and raised right here in Northeast Arkansas. I am the CEO of Twisted Rivers Land Management Company. I started duck hunting at a very young age. I learned a lot from the old timers I hunted with and listening to their stories and constantly trying new tricks. I grew up in the church and worked in farming, oil fields and of course chasing waterfowl. I have been blessed with a wonderful family, a beautiful wife, 2 young sons and a precious little girl. I hope one day they will grow up with the same love of Church, Family, and Waterfowl.

I am 32 years old born and raised right here in Northeast AR, the duck mecca of the world! I would say duck hunting is a huge passion of mine but that would be putting it mildly. Duck hunting is a way of life for me! I started duck hunting at age 5. I was lucky enough to be born in an area ripe with waterfowl hunting tradition. I have had the opportunity to study and learn the flyway and the patterns of birds in this area. Aside from duck hunting, I enjoy deer hunting, fishing and time with family & friends. Duck hunting is always fun, but as a guide, I take my job seriously and put safety 1st above all else.

Maggie is a 8 yr old female Lab. She started her pro career when she was only 9 months old. Due to an unexpected loss of our beloved "Trooper" she got thrust into action at a young age. Maggie picked up over 1000 birds her rookie year and the rest was history. Maggie has picked up over 10K birds in her career. She is a mild mannered lazy house dog that is spoiled by 4 girls in the house, but you put that hunting vest on and she's nothing but BUSINESS!

Cole is a 5 year old black lab. Cole's first season he picked up over 1000 birds. After that first season, he has been on a tear! He is high energy, and goes 100 MPH to every bird. Very friendly and all he wants to do is retrieve. He is extremely driven and would retrieve ducks 24hrs a day if you would let him.

Waylon is a 3 year old American Black Lab with high energy, intense drive and eagerness to please. Given his tall and lanky build, he explodes out of the blind and chases down cripples with ease. Waylon and his owner Cameron have an remarkable bond that is fun to watch in the field. This is Waylon's second season with Cupped Wings and has been an amazing edition to the team and we continue to enjoy watching his progress as he excels in his craft!
