Jim Ronquest – Stuttgart, AR,
Rooted in a lifelong love for hunting and the outdoors, Jim has added to the hunting world over the years. Ronquest has helped develop two of mid-South Arkansas’s most iconic outdoor brands. Following a long and distinguished career of 25+ years with Rich-N-Tone duck calls of Stuttgart, he’s now vice president of development with Mississippi-based Drake Waterfowl, a manufacturer of technical hunting and fishing apparel. He has introduced large audiences to waterfowl and wetlands conservation through his outdoor television show, resulting in raised awareness and protection of the places and species that are vital to the lifestyle. He has welcomed and nurtured the next generation of waterfowl hunters into the fold through youth duck-calling clinics that stress the import of an ethical outdoor lifestyle. His thriving and decades-long relationships with wildlife managers and scientists bridge the gap between the field and the public. Ronquest is also a former World Championship Duck Caller.
