Like most of Team Backwoods, Andrew started hunting and fishing at a very young age with his dad and grandfather. Being a preacher’s kid, he grew up hunting deer and turkey all over the state of Georgia and learned quickly that adaptability is a major key to success in the woods. Andrew is an avid fly fisherman and a turkey junkie in the spring and loves chasing big bucks in the fall. Andrew is a graduate of Asbury College in Kentucky and works as an Investment Portfolio Manager in Atlanta.

“Whether I’m running a camera or pulling the trigger, there’s no difference for me. It’s just as fun to catch a hunt on film as it is to be the hunter. Hunting with the Southern Backwoods guys has given me some opportunities to see and do things that I probably would never have been able to do my own. Believe me, this show really is just real guys living out their dreams and I’m just proud to be a part of it. It’s a wild ride!”- Andrew Atkins
