Hi, I’m Jacob, the founder of Xandr Outdoors. My journey into the outdoors started long before I ever thought about starting a business. As an Army veteran and a proud graduate of BGSU, I’ve always found peace and purpose in the outdoors. Hunting and fishing have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and creating Xandr Outdoors was the natural next step. My mission is to break barriers and make the outdoors more affordable and accessible for youth hunters, while also giving back to veterans who deserve opportunities to reconnect with nature.

When I’m not working on new products like DecoyL, you’ll often find me teaching young people about hunting and fishing. I believe in sharing the skills and traditions I’ve learned with the next generation, helping them build a deeper connection with nature. Whether it’s introducing kids to their first hunting trip or showing them how to fish, there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing their excitement and passion for the outdoors grow.

At Xandr Outdoors, my mission is simple: provide fellow hunters with innovative solutions that make every hunt easier, faster, and more successful — while ensuring that cost is never a barrier for those just getting started. I’m proud of the work we’re doing and can’t wait to see how our products and programs continue to elevate the hunting experience for all.
