Some friends and myself were floating the Rogue River and I was catching all the steelhead...they said I must be "snagging" them. Just stuck.

Well, me and a couple buddies were sitting around the pool one night with beverage's in hand. I had set my cup down, and when I picked it back up to take a drink, a tree frog had crawled up on the lip of my solo cup, and I was eyeball to eyeball and nose to nose with him. Needless to say, him and the cup used some frequent flyer miles... guess it scared the hockey out of both of us.. that's how I got the nickname...

Nick-name growing up was "Whit", my niece was born in 1986, so my friends began calling me "unclewhit".
This thread is going to be very interesting.

I have 14 letters in my last name so using the first 5 is easier.

Mine is actually from my compound days. I shot a PSE then and PSEMAN was my name on the various internet boards I frequented then. When I switche to trad gear a couple of years ago, I just kept that name because it was to much trouble to have to remember multiple usernames and passwords  :o  

I should probably change it to something else, but I probably won't.LOL

I read an article in one of the archery magazines about southeast indian two fletching and played around with it for awhile. At one time I shot a tournament with an arrow made of dog fennel and with 2 fletches. I was surprized that the shaft survived, and continued to shoot 2fletch for awhile afterwards. Eventually I came to the conclusion that 2 fletch was kinda like halfa$$ 4 fletch and wasn't as forgiving.  The name just kinda stuck.

Mine is the name of a specific color phase of an interior grizzly bear in the state of Alaska. A blondish color with dark colored legs and dark circles around the eyes. I actually saw one of these in the wild just once. I had a grizzly tag but the season wasn't open for another week. I was and still am intrigued so I just used that name. The number 1 means absolutely nothing! I used this as a passwor from something once and it was easy for me to remember!

Oh boy I get asked this all the time! A long time ago  me and my wife Dee were trying to set up an e-mail account for a new provider account. We tried to combine our names (Dennis and Dee) dennisdee, deedennis, dendee, deeden, every way we tried was already taken by some one. So I threw my middle initial in there (A) and we ended up with adeeden! I have used it for screen names every where so I won't forget it when I sign in somewhere!

I am about as successful hunting as the cartoon character, Wiley Coyote, chasing the road runner. Bagging game doesn't come easy but I appreciate it when I harvest something!  :help:    :wavey:

Lieutenant with PD, badge no. 51. Lt Dan was already taken on the forum, just as well. If I ever meet the person who wrote the Forrest Gump line "Lt. Dan, you got legs!!" line I'll kick his a$$. I must hear it ten times a day.

The story surrounding mine leaves a very bad taste in my mouth after certain events that have transpired since then with the parties involved. So all I will say is on an elk hunting trip I missed the same cow twice, first shot went over her back and the second went under her belly.  

 I would change it if given the chance, but cannot, besides everyone knows me by it on several sites, so better left alone.

I am a faithful Mizzou Tiger.  Living in Iowa that isn't exactly anything to talk about.  I have a couple of elitist Iowa hunting friends that claim Iowa should cede the lower two tiers of Iowa counties to Missouri and it would raise the IQ and average income of both states.  That is supposed to be an insult to someone from Missouri but it is hard to argue around their logic because they may be correct.

I have hauled thousands of pounds of hunting camps and camp gear deep into the mountains and have guided otherwise novices to some great hunting, like a Sherpa guide so my hunting comrades call me the Sherpa. Missouri Sherpa is a backhanded term of endearment while still being respectful of what I do for them.

Gatekeeper comes from the origin of my family surname Porter. A surname may have come from a families location, occupation, or predominate physical feature. In my case it comes from the occupation.

The English, Scottish meaning of Porter is keeper of the gate, gatekeeper or doorkeeper.

I thought Gatekeeper sounded cool!

Mine's simple. It is my favorite of all terrains. I love the smell, the sun rises, and the wind in the open country.
