Interview With: Becky Lou Lacock

Quick Overview: As a “Late Outdoor Bloomer” I was encouraged to begin writing about my adventures as to possibly inspire women to give the outdoors a chance. I have a tendency to be very enthusiastic about things, and my excitement seems to spill over onto those around me. I really believe that I can make a difference in someone’s life, and possibly provide some inspiration to take a chance on something, like shooting a gun, or Hunting! I believe that it has improved the quality of my life as a whole, and I am certain that it will do the same for anyone!

What is your favorite feature on your website? Blogging! I love people, and talking to people, so my ability to share my Brain Bursts with lots of people is a Thrill!!

Do you hunt?  Yes

If so, what is your favorite type of game to hunt? I have just recently begun hunting Turkey, and I am very excited about it! Until Turkey, I enjoyed hunting Whitetail and other deer, but definitely have a lot of animals I hope to hunt!

How have your marketed your site? I am just beginning to market my site, and I am in the process of upgrading to a smoother faster interaction with a new Webmaster. With the anticipation of increased website traffic after “Ammo & Attitude” begins to air, I am hoping to reach out to everyone, especially women like me (or like I was previously) that are hesitant to delve into some Outdoor Adventures!

Are you involved with Social Media (ie Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc)? Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/BeckyLou-Outdoors/170932218434YouTube: BeckyLouSiana <<<<please note the trick on the spelling of Louisiana: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NydVR7xDutw

Any Bold Predictions for Hunting and Technology in the future? Women in the Outdoors!! I believe that it has been rising for several years, but still just a drop in the bucket when you think of the potential!! Children in the outdoors has been on the decline, and needs to be addressed, I believe that women will prove to be very effective in encouraging the little ones to take it Outdoors!

Extra:  I have just recently finished filming an Outdoor Reality Series, Ammo & Attitude, with 6 women, interesting outdoor competition, to begin August 1, 2010 on Versus Channel. It was extremely exciting, and I think it will portray women in a very positive, but “Competitive” manner!”
