The Sideburn Hunter

My name is Aaron Villery. I am the Sideburn Hunter. I started hunting in 2008 and haven’t looked back. Hunting and it’s associated activities have become my singular hobby. I enjoy spending quality time out of doors chasing the animals that I love. The bonus is, sometimes things come together and I can provide the highest quality meat available to my beautiful wife, daughter, and son.

I started this website to share my knowledge of western big game hunting with the masses. As a first-generation hunter, I know what it is like to face the vertical learning curve of hunting. Without great mentors, I would not have the confidence to hunt like I do freely. Since I know how hard it can be, I strive to provide valuable information that you can take into the forest and procure your own meat confidently.
