MEET THE FOUNDER

Hey, I'm Tate!

I started Process Based Hunter to help the average guy who wanted to hunt to have the resources and opportunities to do it on a budget. One of the most complicated parts of hunting is obtaining tags.

For the new and enthusiastic hunter figuring out all the different applications for all the different states can be absolutely overwhelming. My goal is to make this part of hunting easy, so you can focus on the things you enjoy.
