Daryl is an avid outdoorsman who was born in Alberta and has lived here his whole life. Growing up in rural Alberta he has hunted most of his life, with waterfowl being his passion. In the fall when Daryl is not hunting with his son Ron, he gives his time to helping others get involved in hunting and the outdoors. He volunteers as a mentor with the Delta Waterfowl Parkland Pintails, whose mission is to get people outdoors who have never done it before, through their various programs such as the Waterfowl 101.
Daryl has now passed on his passion to his 14-year-old son Ron who was once a participant in the Waterfowl 101 program himself. Ron has since become the youngest member of the Parkland Pintails volunteer group and has recently won an “outstanding volunteer” award with the chapter. At the recent annual Parkland Pintails fundraising dinner, the group recognized his efforts, contributions, stewardship to conservation, and involvement in the outdoor world.
Daryl and Ron both volunteer their time with Delta Waterfowl. As well, Ron has volunteered with events hosted by Alberta Conservation Association such as the Kids Can Catch event and is always on the lookout for more opportunities where he can lend a hand.
While Daryl’s main love is water fowling, Ron has shown interest in all facets of hunting, having shot his first deer when he was 12. He looks forward to the many hunting opportunities that lie ahead.
In addition to hunting and harvesting wild proteins, Daryl and Ron love the “after the trigger” moments: They do all their own processing, including complete butchering and making their own sausage.
