Brian Ross

Brian is the majority owner of the Outdoor Owners Network, LLC. He has been an avid outdoorsman since (or really before) harvesting his first deer in 1986, when he was nine years old. His family has been hunting the same land since 1984. With that kind of family tradition, he doesn’t look forward to the day circumstances change to a point the tradition is unable to continue. They had to start leasing the farm about 8 years ago because of pressure from other hunting groups. He believes it would be naive to think there won’t come a day when the lease will increase beyond their means, or the farm will change hands all together.

After his son Connor was born, he began to think about the future. He wondered if Connor would be able to have the same hunting experiences with their family that he did when he was growing up. Maybe - but that wasn't a good enough answer for him and he decided he needed to do his best to sustain the tradition.

Brad Gannaway is the owner and operator of Pro Outfitters, owner and executive producer of Lodge Life TV, and now co-owner of the Outdoor Owners Network, LLC. He has been a full time outfitter for the last 9 years. His love of the outdoors is shown in his commitment to Missouri Ducks Unlimited. He has held many positions in the organization over the years, most recently the District Chairman position. Brad is committed to providing quality hunts, even when the other duck clubs in the area are struggling. He takes it personal. Brad commands the respect of the area’s other hunters and trips to town usually include inquires from others on why he has been so succesful. Brad's success comes from working hard. He is up each morning before anyone else and is still working while the others are ready to call it a night. During the off season, Brad vigorously works at improving the quality of his trips by scouting, obtaining new properties, making improvements to the Pro Outfitters lodge, and exploring ways to satisfy his clients.
