Clayton grew up on his family farm in the small rural town of Runge, Texas. Spending much of his childhood in a tractor, he witnessed firsthand the devastating damage feral hogs inflict on crops and the local ecosystem.
At age 25, he launched his own outfit, Punisher Hunting LLC (licensed in 2016), and continues to run it single-handedly today. His hunts stand out for their high-energy pace and top-tier equipment. On a typical hunt, pigs are pursued at high speed in a custom-built Jeep. Hunters are secured in roof-mounted seats, armed with an AR, embracing the adrenaline rush of the chase and trusting their skills and gear to make the shot count.
When not guiding hog hunts, Clayton enjoys pursuing predators, dove, quail, and white-tailed deer. He takes great pride in teaching his children to hunt, process, and eat their own wild game—instilling self-reliance and respect for the outdoors.
Clayton is always glad to help fellow hunters with questions about nighttime hunting and thermal or night vision equipment. As part of the Night Vision Outfitters team, he enjoys sharing his real-world experience to help others choose gear they can depend.
