About us
Garry has over 30 years experience as an avid angler and hunter. He started at a young age with his parents teaching him and his siblings the everyday fundamentals of hunter safety to respecting nature. Garry also started to learn to trap and harvest furs with a friend and it did'nt take long for the rest of the family to follow suit for the next 18 years. Once out of high school, Garry managed a mining exploration crew in the prospecting bush camps of Northern Ontario and Quebec for three years. He also worked for Ducks Unlimited as a project operator maintaining and constructing wetland projects.When ever he has the chance he spends a great deal of time pre-scouting for moose or heading into remote lakes for walleyes and trout. Garry currently works for a Fire Protection company in Timmins, Ontario and this frequently brings him to remote bush camps for forestry, gold and diamond mines. Today, Garry's passion for bowhunting and angling is also being shared by his wife of 13 years, Lisa and daughter Daphne, who is 9 years old.

I have been bowhunting over 32 years and have been successful in taking numerous moose, deer, bear, turkey, timber wolf and numerous small game as well. The hunt that I live for, is undoubtedly moose, but with my wife and daughters bowhunting as well, the bear hunt is a great family hunting adventure that I wouldn’t do with out.
As an ardent outdoorsman, I have held 4 separate registered traplines at different times in northern Ontario for close to 20 years. These traplines would cover well over 400 square miles of wilderness combined.
As a certified International Bowhunter Education instructor, I enjoyed traveling across northern Ontario teaching fellow hunters the ins and outs of the sport I hold so close to my heart.
Moving to southern Ontario has given me the opportunity to travel the 3D archery circuits and in doing so, I have picked up Prostaff positions with a bow company and a major arrow company, that I am still with to this day.
I also began to think about sharing my hunts, and hunts of my friends to the world and began a website of my own that showcases real everyday hunters doing what they do best and www.justushunting.com was born and I’m now looking at expanding to cable tv.
When approached by good friend Garry Labelle to be a part of the Outdoor Test Pilot crew, I leapt at the offer, Garry is a good man, with high moral and ethical values that reflect my beliefs. I will help anyway I can.
