The
Bradley household is made up of a unique blend of four persons:
Darrin, Glenda, Tyler, and Houston. Glenda,
Houston
, and
Tyler
hail originally from
Fort Smith
,
Arkansas
and a quick conversation with any of them would definitely reveal
the distinguishable “Southern Draw”.
Darrin
is a born and bred
Missouri
boy, who also held residency in
Pike County
,
Illinois
for many years, familiarizing himself with the
Illinois
whitetail herd. He serves on 36 separate Hunting Industry Pro
Staff’s and holds an estimated sixteen or so Pope and Young
Whitetail’s to his credit, along with a variety of other trophy
North American Big Game Animals.

Darrin is an accomplished Outdoor Writer and has been published in
Buckmasters, Bowhunter, Ultimate Bowhunter, Deer and Deer
Hunting, etc. Bradley currently holds a Bachelor of Science in
Human Services, supported by an Associate Degree in Business
Management. “I love professional sports, and am a huge
Chicago Cubs fan. (I bleed blue.) The Denver Broncos are my
favorite football team and the game hasn’t been the same since
Elway left. I love to hunt and fish. My favorite animal to hunt is
either whitetail or wild boar. I collect autographed baseballs
from Major League Players. More importantly, although I am not a
“stick in the mud”, God has made a huge impression in my life.
I salute my family and all other IMB co-owners for authorizing the
donation of company profits for doing many wonderful things for
the less fortunate throughout the world. We have been able to help
support orphanages in
Mexico
, send missionaries overseas, send single mothers to college, and
just help the community in general. To me this business has been
about far more than big antlers.”
Glenda
may be the perfect example of the “southern lady”. She seems
to always bring a touch of class to the environment, and
compliments Darrin’s weaknesses appropriately (and then some).
Glenda dedicates a great deal of her time and energy to the local
Christian church. Between her friendly intellectual class act and
Darrin’s banter, it’s hard to find a dull moment in the
household. Glenda works full time for IMB Outfitters working on
all the detail oriented tasks that drive everyone else crazy. The
tasks that so many of us overlook when we are sitting in the
treestand waiting for a record book buck. She keeps up with all
the tax, computer, documentation, legal, financial, etc tasks.
Glenda was formally employed for ABF Freight System Inc in the
Revenue Accounting dept for about 16 years. Don’t take this
woman for granted. Rest assured, if you’re successful with us
this fall, a major portion of that success you owe to Glenda.
Houston
is the youngest of the twins by 10 minutes. He graduated in 2002
and is currently seeking a degree in Business Management, but is
also interested in becoming a radiologist. Hey girls,
Houston
is single but watch out, “He’s a heartbreaker.” He currently
works part time for IMB Outfitters in the fall as a guide and
enjoys hunting, fishing, sports, camping, and all the other
boyhood endeavors. You’ll find
Houston
working mainly in the States of Missouri and
Iowa
each fall, and since he lives here you can bet he knows where your
next “monster buck” may be hiding out. If you want to bribe
him, it can’t be done with Chicago Cubs memorabilia because
he’s a St. Louis Cardinal fan. Oh well, we can’t all be
perfect.
Tyler
is also a 2002 graduate, and as you might have guessed, he’s
also a Redbirds fan. The twins are kinda like “two peas in a
pod” unless they’re fighting over who gets to ride
“shotgun” or “who’s gonna reel the big catfish in this
time.” The squabbles are funner to watch than a Boone and
Crockett Buck chasing does…………..well maybe not.
Tyler
works full time for the business in the State of
Illinois
and is seeking out a future management position with IMB
Outfitters.
The
only thing that needs fixing at the Bradley household is the
conversion of three Cardinal fans into Cubs fans.
