George Lynch

George Lynch 46, grew up in Southern Michigan hunting and fishing all his life. Also from an early age his father took the time to teach him every competitive sport that would fit into their schedules. George learning this competitive spirit from an early age, wanting and striving to be the best carried with him throughout his life. This continuous drive and desire for excellence of winning and being a part of a winning team is why George is proud to be part of the Avery Pro Staff.

 In the year 2000 this competitive drive helped him win the title of Michigan State Goose calling Champion, his first ever calling contest. Always looking for something better is the reason George developed his own line of calls named Lynch Mob Calls. A nickname given to him earlier in his career by a neighboring Ohioan named Fred Zink, who he had worked with in a guiding operation in southern Michigan.

The call business has given him many opportunities to travel and hunt all over the country as well as Canada and to meet fellow hunters from all over. He has judged many large sanctioned calling contests as well as doing goose calling and hunting seminars for large companies such as Sportsmans Warehouse, Cabelas, and Gander Mountain. His goose hunts have been shown in many newspaper articles, magazines, along with doing TV shows.

George is a serious waterfowler along with Turkey and Bowhunting Deer. In 2004 he co-partnered in a guide service running Whitetail hunts in Iowa where his clients killed many world class animals. He also did a TV show with John Risinger and Matt Moore called Closing the Distance, with Matt killing 148” 8 point on the first day of the hunt on a piece of property George discovered only 2 days prior.

George has 3 children Brooke who is 21 a college student, studying to become a teacher. Adam who is 19 is a student at Evangel University in Springfield MO. Studying to become a minister. Adam is also playing baseball for EU and is starting as a freshman. Lauren who is 15 goes to Lenawee Christian High School and enjoys playing Volleyball.

George strongly believes that family should be a main priority in our lives, and instilling good morals and honest ethics along            with strong character is obtained through example. George believes it is the same for our future young hunters that are starting today. He believes we as respected and seasoned hunters should set the benchmark as to why we hunt and to respect all game laws. He believes that this type of professionalism to our sport and game laws is a key essential to managing our resources.

One of George’s goals is to produce instructional videos that can teach young and old alike on the true professionalism of our sport.


Adam Lynch

My passion for hunting started at an early age, which was developed by spending time with my father.  As a child I grew up chasing Canada’s with him, and have been obsessed ever since.  Growing up with my father I have learned a lot about hunting, anywhere from whitetails in October, gobblers in the spring, or knocking down honkers in September.  I love bow hunting whitetails, but there is just something thrilling about goose hunting.  I attend Spring Arbor University in Michigan where I am pursuing a degree in Pastoral Ministry.  My goal is to spread the gospel of the good news through the great outdoors.  My desire is to share my passion of hunting and Jesus Christ to the youth of today.  In high school I lettered all four years in baseball and played one full year of college ball in Missouri.  Now that I’m not playing baseball anymore, I am excited to get into competitive calling.  I’m very proud of Lynch Mob Calls, not just because it is my dad’s business, but I am honored to represent a great product.



Curt McNabb

Curt’s dad is to blame for creating a monster. Curt started hunting at the age of 5 with his dad and brother. He used to carry a stick as his gun, and then graduated to a BB gun and then a 4-10 and so on. He has always been interested in the outdoors, to him there is nothing better than watching a flock of hungry ducks or geese dropping into a field. He typically starts in Minnesota early, then hunts Iowa, then Northern Missouri as the season goes on, but he can’t ever turn those trips down to Saskatchewan or Manitoba. He loves traveling around and visiting with other hunters giving some of his knowledge and receiving new tips and tricks. “You’re never too old to learn something new.” Curt is currently also on the Avery Pro Staff. Besides hunting, Curt also enjoys playing baseball still and fishing. Hang Em Low & Hit Em Hard!



Jeremy Abbas

Chasing birds, from his first duck harvest 25 years ago at the age of 7 that is what’s been going on. Starting his lifelong passion on the small marshes of Hancock County with his brother Jason and his dad is where it all began. Even after sinking the boat during a tornado on his first hunt, the need to get under every duck and goose he could would not be dashed. Jeremy grew up in Kanawha, Iowa where he attended school thru graduation. He then attended Iowa Central Community College in Fort Dodge Iowa where he majored in Law Enforcement while playing 2 years of college baseball. After school Jeremy was hired on with a security service where he worked for 5 years. Knowing he needed more time to get to the blind a career change was in order. Jeremy is currently employeed as a Supervisor with Winnebago Industries in Forest City Iowa.

Jeremy starts his waterfowl season every year in Saskatchewan Canada and hunts multiple areas in the Mississippi Flyway during the season. The cornfields of Iowa is where most of Jeremy’s action takes place, and where he calls home, but has been fortunate to hunt in many other areas where he has met some of the nicest folks in the industry. Jeremy is also very excited to be a Pro-Staff member of Avery Outdoors/GHG and feels he has found a home at LYNCH MOB CALLS.

Some of Jeremy’s passions within the industry include serving on his local Ducks Unlimited Board, the pastime of Taxidermy, and the exciting life of becoming a photographer, which is one of the roles he takes on with Avery Outdoors. As well as working the many waterfowl shows while representing Avery/GHG, and talking with the many folks while doing seminars and product demonstrations. Along with that he enjoys training his hunting dogs and spending time with his two young sons in the outdoors.
Jeremy resides on an acreage outside of Clarion Iowa with his wife of 8 years Sara, and their two young sons, Tanner 7, and Reed 4.



Todd Vande Noord

Born and raised in Iowa, Todd has always had the itch to get outdoors. He would have to blame his father for instilling the love of the outdoors in him. He started hunting as soon as he could walk and at the age of 8 he shot his first greenhead. Since then, he has worked relentlessly to understand the quarry he pursues. Deer, turkey, and pheasant hunting is hard to pass up but he has a true passion for waterfowling. He especially enjoys hunting with his family and friends. Todd has hunted several states but he usually starts the early season in Minnesota, then hunts his home state of Iowa, and ends the season in Missouri. If time allows he will try to make a trip to one of the provinces up north. In the off-season he enjoys spending time with his wife Jill, bass fishing, and playing baseball.



Michael Weiss

Michael grew up in south central Illinois . He started hunting at the age of 12 chasing all types of game. At the age of 13 Michael went on his first duck hunt with a family friend and has had the “disease” ever since! This passion for ducks, geese and the outdoors drove Michael to study Biology/Botany at Western Illinois University were he graduated in the spring of 2004. He has had the opportunity to hunt some of the best areas throughout the state including: Southern Illinois , Carlyle, Historic duck hunting locations along the Illinois River , Canton , Pool 19, and around Macomb , IL during college. Not to mention Arkansas , North Dakota , and Saskatchewan , Canada .

Michael's main type of hunting involves the use of layout blinds hunting in dry crop fields or sheet water for ducks and geese. He especially guns for the true giant Canada geese that winter in the area.

All of the experiences and learning through trail and error led Michael to a spot on the Avery Outdoors Pro-Staff. Being a part of this wonderful experience he has had the opportunity to meet some of the best in the business and make many new, great friends, something he would not trade for the world! One of those people was Curt McNabb and he introduced Michael to Lynch Mob Calls. Michael fell in love with the ease, but most importantly was overall control and realism!!!

Michael has always said:

“The call has to be functional, easy to blow, and most importantly...sound like a goose...period! Those are the quintessential points to any GREAT goose call…and there aren't many, but these calls have ‘IT'!

Michael is very proud to be part of the Lynch Mob Calls Pro-Staff and looks forward to the opportunities to come, people to meet, and times shared with friends in the field using Lynch Mob Calls.

“Good Luck and Hang ‘Em Low boys!!!



Kyle Tipton

Kyle Tipton, was born and raised in the central part of Kentucky, introduced to the outdoors at an early age. At the age of three Kyle was often found in the dove fields with his grandfather, Or in the hardwoods with his uncle chasing big whitetails. Growing up in a deer hunting community not many people chased waterfowl, but luckily his grandfather had some past experience while growing up, and introduced Kyle to duck hunting. His first duck hunt was over a flooded wheat field, and a flock of black ducks came in cupped up and committed, and it was over, Kyle was hooked for life. Hunting not only is a past time for Kyle, but it is a way of life, and he enjoys every second of it.

Kyle, also represents his local Ducks Unlimited by serving on the board, and is currently attending college to earn a degree in criminal justice, and he plans on becoming a police officer in the near future. Kyle is out for blood while getting his feet wet on the contest stage competing in goose calling contest with the Out for Blood call. Kyle also loves to represent team Lynch Mob and loves to talk to others who are just as passionate about the outdoors as he is.



Jim Foster

My name is Jim Foster, I am 34 years old I've been married to my wife Shelly for 10 years. We are the parents of twin 3 year old boys, Cory and Hunter I've been hunting for the past 20 plus years. I have been a steel fabricator for the past 12 years at a local company and more recently a professional waterfowl guide for one of the largest outfitters in the Northwest, Pacific Wings Waterfowl Adventures.

My first waterfowl hunt was an early season Teal hunt when I was 12 and I've been hooked ever since. I was born and raised in Eastern Washington and have been able to take advantage of all the hunting opportunities of the wonderful Columbia Basin. In the late 90's I started turning wood calls for buddies in my garage, but as demand became higher I invested in a local machine shop to start turning them out of acrylic and delrin. I marketed them locally for a few years, but soon discovered I had turned my passion into a job and sold the design to a friend in Utah, no regrets I enjoy the additional time I now have to spend in the field, and with my family.

I recently started blowing the Lynch Mob Executioner and it soon became my go-to-call. Here in the basin we have a huge population of Lesser Canadas that can't seem to get enough of this call.

 

Jeff Gudenkauf

Jeff was born and raised in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  By 4 he was taking cuts at the local golf course with his father, by 8, dropping pheasants in the CRP and fence lines of his grandparent’s farm with his father and brother, but it wasn’t until he was 13 that he was introduced to waterfowling by his older brother, who, at the time, was also a novice.

Waterfowling became a love in high school which developed into a flat out addiction by college.  Jeff attended the University of Northern Iowa where he divided his time between obtaining his degree in Business Administration, as a member of the Men’s Golf Team, and chasing his passion in the fields and marshes of Iowa.

Jeff grew up walk-in hunting at small public areas around eastern Iowa.  As he learned, mostly by trial and error, he began to hunting out of smaller, layout type boats which enabled him to “get away from the crowds”, and provided the opportunity to work birds with a call.  As the pressure of the marshes has increased over the years, he has begun chasing birds in dry grain fields around the state.

Jeff is now working as an insurance agent in Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Iowa.  He maintains the same passions he’s had his entire life:  golf and hunting.  He thoroughly enjoys chasing anything that will react to a call: ducks, geese and turkey as well as running his 9 year old Lab through the CRP fields of east central Iowa.  But he has yet to find anything that trumps the sight of ducks and geese cupped and committed over a decoy spread.  After 13 seasons, he still loves to sit and talk with friends and strangers alike about the sights, sounds and stories of the field. 

 

Steve Pascoe

Born and raised in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, yes I am a "Yooper."  I am a 39-year-old father of three children with a loving wife.  I am a Marine Corps and Air Force veteran with total service time of 11 years. 

In 1991, I returned to waterfowling and really found it to become an obsession in 1994.  I was an avid bow hunter and gun hunter, not missing any days in the stand, however, when the goose and duck hunting bug bit that was all over.  Oh, I still spend sometime hunting big game, but I do sit there wondering how the geese and ducks are flying. 

My nickname is "Moses."   I can say it is an honor to have such a nickname.  The nickname was given to me by a group of my friends who I have known for years.  I had take them goose hunting in the U.P. and we limited out for five days straight at 12 birds a day and we had a total of 6 bands and 1 reward band on a goose to count.  They told me I had lead them to the promise land.  If you are a Yooper like me you would know the value in the statement of being in the U.P and how much it really is the promise land.

Giving back to the sport that has given so much to me, I have been a Ducks Unlimited committee and MC of ceremonies for the past 6 years with the Van Buren County Paw Paw Chapter.  I have recently been recruited by Delta Waterfowl in Kalamazoo County to help with their upcoming events.  I have worked as a volunteer DNR hunter safety instructor and believe that children are our future.  I have made a mission to take first timers hunting.  I believe we need to preserve our sport by introducing it to as many people as we can. 

It was refreshing to meet a guy like George Lynch.  As a member of the leading law enforcement agency in the State of Michigan, it is necessary that the people I associate with are law abiding, honest and made up of sound moral fiber.  I know the name Lynch Mob brings up different thoughts, but Lynch is the real deal and a heck-of-a-good man. 

Good luck and good hunting and May the wind be at your back and the birds in your face. 
 

Jose Patino

I grew up in the small town of Greenville enjoying deer and pheasant hunting as a young lad.  While in high school I was introduced to the world of waterfowling and never looked back.  I now live in the Kalamazoo area of Michigan, enjoying goose and duck hunting every chance I get.  I am forunate that I am able to hunt on a regular basis with some good friends that are just as passionate as I about waterfowling.  I currently have two black labs, Angus and Tolee.  I enjoy videography and video editing almost as much as I enjoy the hunt itself.  Our group is forunate to be able to hunt in alot of different places, so getting great video footage is a must in my eyes.  I was able to meet George through my good friend and was able to see that he is very passionate about hunting.  We have become good friends and I enjoy learning different tatics and call methods each time we meet.
