Leevi Escobar - Pulsar Pro Staff 2021
I was born in Rio Grande City, Texas in 1985 and raised in the lower Rio Grande Valley where naturally I embraced the love for the outdoors. I pursued my college education at the University of Texas Pan American receiving a Bachelor of Science in General Studies. Currently, I coach physical education at IDEA public schools and after school basketball and baseball.
At a very young age, I discovered my passion for hunting, calling and shooting. Growing up and living in the South Texas Region has given me the opportunity to develop and hone the knowledge and skills of an avid outdoorsmen. Having had the privilege to help guide on several Ranches has provided me with a deeper insight on the importance of predator control and wildlife management. I have recently taken up photography as a side hobby. Photography has brought out a creative side in me which allows me to tie together special moments of my outdoor experiences and captivating the natural elements. Lastly, I devote the majority of my summers hitting the waters of the Lower Laguna Madre as a Captain for my charter Waist Deep Fishing.
I’m going on a year with my .22 nosler rifle that Aaron sent me over to try out. From the custom cerakote job to the suppressor, to the pinpoint accuracy, this rifle has been amazing. I’ve had clients use this rifle and make some incredible 200-yard shots with ease, due to the craftsman ship that Phoenix Weaponry puts into their rifles. The rifle has been so reliable hunt after hunt with zero issues no miss feeds, no misfires and putting down a few hundred rounds down range. At this great price point you owe it to yourself to get a sweet custom AR rifle. On top of great custom rifles, these guys are also very friendly and knowledgeable, any time I have a question it’s a just a quick call away.
