Shannon James Olson

As a young boy Shannon Olson grew up in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the small mountain town of Golden, Colorado. When he was eight years old he moved to Southwest Oklahoma. During his younger years he enjoyed the sport of fishing and later became involved in hunting. Upon reaching adulthood he became a law enforcement officer, an ARMY soldier, a Mason and an avid outdoorsman.

Shannon’s day jobs have consisted of being a police officer or a sheriff’s deputy for over a decade. He has patrolled the streets for many years and now investigates the crimes. He is a law enforcement instructor for the state of Oklahoma and has taught many people concealed weapon courses. He has served in the Oklahoma National Guard and has taught Hunter Safety to many youth and adults across the State of Oklahoma.

He has a deep love for fly fishing and fly tying. He has even created a company called ‘I’ve Got Bugs’ in hopes of sharing this passion with others. He also enjoys hunting and has built a room that is full of animals he has tracked and killed. He loves being outdoors in God’s creation. This has taken him all over the country on many adventures. It has been a long time dream of his to be able to write his stories and share them with others.

Shannon is a very outspoken person with a sense of humor that goes for days. Not a day goes by where he doesn’t tell a ridiculously funny story or play tricks on his

Co-workers. Humor follows him around and is contagious to all that meet him. He is a God fearing man that loves his family. He is an old fashioned type of person that believes in living life and enjoying every day you are given. He currently resides in Elmer, Oklahoma and continues to enforce the law and fish and hunt every chance he gets.
