Getting to know the Parsons Outdoor Productions Team.

Team Member: Jon Parsons

Jon Parsons - Jon is a 29 year hunting veteran who resides in the state of Ohio. His hunting career started when he was 12 years old with his dad, Robert Parsons. Robert taught him the basics and safety principles of hunting and shooting.  Jon's interest has since grown "out of control" as some would say. His real love although is bowhunting.

Team  Member: Tim Ward

Tim Ward  -  Tim is a 35 year old father of his son, Collin.  That's his little buck.  He was born and raised in Western Pennsylvania in a small town (Industry) just 25 miles north west of Pittsburgh.  GO STEELERS!!! 

 His love for the outdoors stems back to when he was very young.  Tim's family really enjoyed the outdoors.  They were always hiking,camping, fishing, and hunting.  Tim was probably 8 or 9 when his father starting him out"hunting" with him.  So by the time it was his turn, he was obsessed with the outdoors.  This obsession quickly turned into a life-long passion for outdoor sports. 

 Tim's favorite outdoor memory took place during the 2000 archery season.  where he had an 8 point walk within 20 yards of his stand.  When Tim let that arrow fly, his heart sank as he watched it harpoon the ground just underneath the deer.  As he trotted off in alert, Tim quickly grunted at him, which luckily turned him in the direction of his dad who was only 70 yards from Tim.  The buck stopped broadside 15 yards from his stand, and unlike Tim, his father didn't miss.   He had bowhunted for as long as Tim can remember, and this was the first buck he had ever shot with a bow.  In hindsight, Tim thanked god that he missed it afterwards. Ironically, Tim's  dad doesn't let him forget that he shot the deer Tim missed. 

There is nothing more intense than the adrenaline rush you feel when that buck is coming into range, or the spectacular show put on by a largemouth bass on the end of your line.  Videotaping these outdoor adventures is our way of sharing them with you. So take the time to experience the beauty of mother nature...and PLEASE SHARE HER WITH A CHILD. Email Tim

Team Member: Rick Constanza

Rick Costanza - 49 year old Rick Costanza lives in Conway, Pa. He enjoys hunting, fishing and woodcarving. Rick starting his hunting career at the age of 12 and began archery hunting in 1985. Since then it has become his passion. Every year he looks forward to the preparation for archery season and spending time afield with family and friends. One of Rick's favorite highlights was shooting a really big 8 point after being in the stand only 3 minutes, and then sharing the moment with his sons Rich and Josh. Rick started hunting and filming for Parsons Outdoors in 2006, after meeting Jon and Tim at a local hunting show. He is still looking for his first Pope and Young Whitetail. Could this be the year? May all your arrows fly true!

Team Member: John Rovente

John Rovente - John is a 42 year old born and raised in California. He moved to Pennsylvania in 1991 and is now a resident of Monaca Pa.  John started his hunting career at the ripe old age of 8 when he shot his father's 12 gauge shotgun at a mallard duck down in the San Francisco Delta. As you can expect, it blew him out of the duck blind but it is something that will stay with him for the rest of his life. John's father was an avid upland game hunter and taught him all that he knew.  At the age of 10 his family moved to the very small town of Groveland which lies in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. At that time his father introduced him to big game hunting and it opened a new world of hunting. John bought his first Bear compound Bow and found a love for archery as well.  After joining the Military Police Corps., he was set up as "platoon sniper" in the 3 different bases he was stationed at. John found his true passion of long range hunting.  Since then he has taken hunting to a new level with different optics and range finders that have enabled him to take deer at the range of 1400 yards with his Custom 300 WIN MAG. John advises that any further than that would still be a kill but the bullet's remaining foot pounds of energy  would be too low for a clean kill.  
Tim and Jon have given John Rovente the opportunity to show his long range hunting skills to others and he's passionate in sharing the knowledge that he has to help other hunters, whether it is with a bow, crossbow or a firearm.
