Troy was an avid hunter and could be found in the woods during hunting season. He enjoyed both archery and rifle seasons and would spend days and weeks getting ready for the season. In addition to hunting, Troy enjoyed trap shoots and sporting clay shoots with his friends on the weekends. When Troy was not hunting, you could almost always find him watching a hunting show or target shooting with his bow or rifle.
