August’s Bone Collector of the Month, Mathew Ritchison, from Indiana began hunting when he was only eight years old. Ever since then he has done his part to “keep the local deer population from getting over crowded,” he says. He enjoys hunting Whitetail deer the most, and that his proudest whitetail moment came last season when he bagged a 200lb. field dressed 142” 10 pt. Indiana buck. A “Hoosier Buck like Waddell,” he proudly points out, although Mathew’s dream would be to take a bowhunting trip on the Milk River in Montana.
This hunter-gatherer enjoys hunting to provide venison for his family and even an occasional thunderchicken in the spring, as well as collecting a little Bone along the way. Mathew takes pleasure in calling himself part of the brotherhood, because Bone Collectors are just “Good Ole Boys, down to Earth, and proud of what they do. Keep hunting Bone, I know I will.”
