Scott has lived in Bismarck, North Dakota since May of 1992 and grew up hunting and fishing in South Dakota around the Pierre area. Scott developed his love for the outdoor’s from his grandfather Willie Combs. Grandpa Willie started taking Scott hunting and fishing at an early age and the hunting passion grew with each year. Scott’s passion for the outdoors has him traveling to other areas of the country just to encounter a new outdoor experience. Whether it's caribou in Alaska or antelope in Montana, or Bear hunting in Canada, bow hunting is his passion. Scott has harvested well over 60 animals with his bow of which 12 are P&Y animals. Each experience brings new challenges and he always tries to learn from his experiences.
Scott’s other passion is the art of taxidermy. At the age of eight Scott mounted a raccoon shoulder mount. His mother did not allow it in the house very long due to the strong odor coming from his room but it was the start of a dream to become a taxidermist. In 1992 when he moved to Bismarck he met Brian Kadrmas a local taxidermist who he eventually worked for and learned from.
In November of 1993 Scott accepted a job with the Bureau of Reclamation as a Natural Resource Specialist but continued working for Brian Kadrmas part-time. Scott continued to practice and eventually became a 3-time North Dakota State champion in the Whitetail game head division.
In the off season Scott enjoys traveling and camping with his family, shooting his bow, shed hunting, and of course doing taxidermy. Scott has a beautiful family his wife Teresa, a daughter (6), and a son (2). His daughter has already been on two bow hunts with dad.
