I was wondering if there are any opportunities out there for an 18 yr. old to become a pro-staffer? Get back soon and thanks.

Good luck dude! About several thousand other guys want the same thing! I would say you better know someone to get an inside track or make yourself stand out above all the other guys, either with your knowledge or your talent in the calling contests. Also they want someone who will really contribute to the company, not someone who just wants to be a prostaffer and all the benefits they can reap by that. I'm sure if you talk to some of the prostaffers it's not all fun and games, it's also alot of crappy everyday mondane stuff as well, alot of behind the scenes stuff. But if that is want you want to be, then do something to make them want you! In other words build a resume, calling record, alot of local knowledge and contacts (something to bring to the table for your area), and be personable and professional, build your people skills, learn to be helpful and unselfish in dealing with the everyday hunters. But again good luck to you!

well i know right before mark carey was releived from the prostaff he was talkin about alot of people being cut from the prostaff because all they did was want stuff and never contributed to the company at all. and gettin on the prostaff has to do with where you live. alot of states dotn have prostaffers but some states have alot. but like the other guys said, its all about dedication and knowledge. so get an application and give it a shot.

I've done some teal huntin' there..that's about it. I've never done the nutwood bottom thing. I hear you can kill 'em there from time to time though. Like I say...I am either at godar or private holes or my farm. Take a trip or two here and there as well.
