Jackie Bushman Net Worth $5 Million
Little is known about Jackie’s background, apart from the fact that he attended Auburn University, from which he obtained a degree in economics with a minor in marketing. While at the university, Jackie ruled the tennis list, and soon enough turned pro. Although Jimmy Connors was the best at the time, Jackie wasn’t very far behind, as he apparently won some titles of his own, which only laid the basis of his net worth at that time.
However, at 29 years old, Jackie left tennis for hunting, and started “Backmasters”, an organization that welcomed deer hunters from every part of the USA. Little by little his kingdom grew, and he started holding deer hunting championships in the late ‘80s. Thanks to the early success of his project, his work was picked up by the Outdoor channel, which then easily persuaded him to start “The Jackie Bushman Show” in 1988. It has been so successful that the show still airs, which has significantly contributed to Jackie’s net worth over almost 30 years. Since his beginnings, Jackie has become one of the most praised and respected hunters in the whole world, which has only influenced the expansion of his business and of course his wealth, although still relatively modest.
Nowadays, “Backmasters”, has its own magazine, the sales of which have also helped Jackie to increase his net worth.
Jackie also has several sponsorship deals, with such brands as Nikon, Realtree, Hodgdon, among many others, with lucrative contracts which also benefit his wealth.
Regarding his personal life, information about his marital status and number of children remains unknown to the media, since Jackie tends to keep this kind of detail as private as possible.
