Outdoor Girl of the Month for May 2010
Shannon Gillette
of Aurora, Indiana
With Turkey Season in full swing, ... our selection for Outdoor Girl of the Month during this time is easy. Shannon Gillette is an accomplished archer and will harvest several gobblers each season with her Mathews bow.
Originally from Dillsboro, Indiana is Shannon. This young lady has experience way past her years. She and her crew not only hunt, but
film their hunts. Being a professional Archer and Hunter is one thing,
but she also films and logs many hours in the field each season.
Above, Shannon poses with her 2010 Indiana Archer Harvest.

every now and then and this boar is one nasty looking hog.
I think Miss Shannon's smile says she likes hunting hogs too !

May 10th Update ...
This week, we focus on Shannon's fun side. Although she is an accomplished hunter and archer, this young lady is outgoing and fun.
Check out this week's gallery " The Faces of Shannon Gillette "
This Outdoor girl can smile !
This Outdoor girl can shoot a bow. She wins awards annually.
More to come on her talents as a archer. We'll post more information about Shannon's successful Archery shooting later. She is a member of the International Bowhunting Organization. ( IBO ) If you want a quick peek ?

I personally appreciate this lady's talent. I love to hunt and call turkeys. Using archery equipment makes the task much more difficult.
Filming hunts usually means taking turns to hunt. Shannon
and the team are very dedicated to successful filming.

And on the right, last season's Indiana success.

Now, being a lady hunter you still got to have a pink call don't you ? Speaking of calls ... Shannon has many Sponsors backing her like
Quaker Boy ( calls ) and Mathews, Goldtip and Nikon to name a few.

Maybe it's not the calling that draws those birds into bow range, ...
maybe it's her eyes ?

Or, ... maybe it's the flip flops and blaze orange toe nails ?
Whatever the reason this Outdoor Girl has great success
can be debated, but you'll see in the weeks to come more
great photos and learn lots more of this amazing lady, thus
why she landed as one of our 2010 Outdoor Girls of the Month.
Check each week ... we'll be adding new photos
and really, ... she is one impressive lady.
