AJ Johnson

Forum Name: mingo

AJ Johnson grew up chasing small game and deer across steep ridges and valleys. AJ was introduced to turkey hunting by a classmate during his college years. Although he didn’t know it at the time, pursuing spring gobblers would become a full blown obsession. Over the years, he has become an accomplished caller and has helped many of his friends bag their first bird. With countless longbeards to his credit, his most recent gobbler seasons have been devoted to harvesting birds with his bow. In the fall, AJ loves pursuing big whitetails in archery season. And during the rut, you can bet that he’ll be perched in his favorite stand from dawn until dusk. You should expect nothing less from a guy who actually proposed to his wife in a treestand. AJ and Bonnie are happily married and have three children, Morgan, Madison, and Troy. AJ’s greatest joy is spending time outdoors with his kids and introducing them to the sport that has meant so much to him.
