Jeremy Sickles inspiration and love for the outdoors began at a very young age. "I have to give my stepfather, Jr. all the credit for this". His earliest memories of hunting are with him. He taught Jeremy the skills and patience that is needed to be a successful hunter. "I would also like to thank Brian Doty for giving me a spot on the XOA Team. With Brian and the rest of the team it should make for an exciting season". Jeremy along with his brother Jared and friend Cody also started Blue Collar Bowhunter. They offer guided bow fishing trips for alligator gar, and are currently working on a hard hitting DVD. Jeremy has a very understanding wife that knows his passion for the outdoors, and two beautiful children Tristen who is eight and Julia six. They too, like their father, love being in the outdoors.
