Ivie Baker is also an avid hunter and enjoys the great outdoors.
She's been enjoying the sport of hunting from a young age. She first
started tagging along on duck hunts with her father at around 10 or
11 years old. It was shortly after that she got her first duck call as a
Christmas present. She learned how to call duck in while her father
took the shots.
At 14, she was given her first gun (a Marlin 30-30) for her birthday,
just a month before deer season started in 1983. That was the year
she started making visits to the U.P. the first week of every deer
season. After many hunts of see just does, she got her first buck at
the age of 19 on openning day, 1988. It was a spike shot at
approximately 150 yards! On day two that same year, she took an
eight point at approximately 50 yards!

Since then, she has made a point of never missing a hunt. She's taken several deer since then and took her last
deer on November 19th, 2003 in northwestern Gladwin County.
She's a believer in quality wildlife conservation and has helped support organizations like Pheasents Forever and
Ducks Unlimited with artwork donations. She is also very familiar with the land in both Gladwin and Clare Counites,
(and some of lower Roscommon & Ogemaw County).
