Billy Kunelius eats, sleeps, and breathes trees—he’s a fulltime forester, is a BRUNT sponsored timbersports athlete, and loves the woods more than pretty much anyone else we know. Like a lot of kids growing up, Billy spent his childhood exploring the outdoors, and enjoyed hunting and fishing with his dad. But he knew he was destined to be a true outdoorsman when he saved up his money at age 8 to purchase his first axe. In college he joined the timbersports team at the University of New Hampshire and he’s been competing in events across the country as a professional ever since graduating. Our Head of Community and Bucket Talk host, Jeremy Perkins, sat down with Billy to chat about what goes into maintaining a healthy forest and hear some of the wild stories of being a timbersports athlete.
