EXAMPLE PRIOR EXPERIENCE WORDING (for a Hunting Guide)
other outfitting fields can follow same template

Field Experience:
I have been hunting myself and with family and friends for the past 15 years in and around my home county, and have participated in hunting trips in the following States, CO, ID, AK.  I have worked for ABC Hunting Comp (CO) for the past 3 years as a guide.  I have guided approx 15 trips on my own in the past 3 years for approx 20 clients.

Business Experience:
I have worked as a manager at ABC Machine Shop for the past 7 years and was responsible for 4 employees.  I have also owned and operated my own landscaping business for the past 3 summers in CO.

When you are writing prior experience, points to mention:
1. Field Experience.  Where you have the experience, what State, County.  How many years experience.  Who you have worked for (what company).  Were you an employee, a lead guide, an owner/operator, etc?

2. Business Experience.  Comp's will look to see any type business experience you have in your outfitting field or outside your field regardless if you were an owner or an employee. What company have you owned, what company have you worked for, how long, what position did you hold, etc.
