Welcome to Jay’s Outdoor Life!
Welcome to Jay’s Outdoor Life! I am aiming to not only blog my outdoor adventures but to be a one-stop resource for all things Outdoorsman related, with a focus on fair chase hunting, fishing, foraging as well as processing your harvest and making delicious, memorable meals out of it. We are quickly growing and changing, so check back often! I also welcome all ideas for content! If there’s something you want to see, let me know in our forums or shoot me a personal message or email and I will try to make it happen! Also please stop by the forums and introduce yourselves, lets all work together to make this Outdoor community grow!
We have a Discord chat server! Discord is a very powerful real-time text and voice chat server tailored to gamers however I believe it will work out great for an Outdoorsman’s site as well. There are clients available for Android, IOS, Mac and PC as well as a web client that is always available. For more info go to http://www.discordapp.com
In order to use Discord you must first sign up on here, once you have an account on jaysoutdoor.life you will be able to see who is online and join our Discord server using the Widget along the right-hand side of the webpage. If anyone needs any assistance with any of this feel free to shoot me a message.
