Zink Calls Pro Staff

John Cristinziani
You may recognize John as the founder and operator of Magnum Hunts www.magnumhunts.com a World Class hunting club specializing in Canada goose hunting since 1985. He continues to appear in several media productions as well as in magazines and newspaper articles. John is also a member of the DestinationX Team.

Born & raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, John's roots take him back to Europe where his family pursued wild boar, fox & hare with hounds. His father first introduced him to the sport of waterfowling as a young boy at age 10 and this ignited a burning desire in John to learn to hunt his game of choice - the Canada goose. Despite being fanatical about chasing and trying to outsmart big mature whitetails, nothing compares to the constant action encountered when decoying large Canada's to the spread.

Serious goose calling for John began as far back as 1986 when at age 17; he entered his first sanctioned contest. John won several local competitions along with many top finishes but his most successful win was the title of Canadian Calling Champion in 1998.

John has an extensive background in corporate sales and has since started up his own sales and marketing company specializing in industry related products for the hunting and outdoor sports. John is the Avery Outdoors broker for Quebec and Ontario as well as the Zink Calls distributor for Quebec and Eastern Canada.

Much of his free time is spent developing his outfitter business, hunting trophy whitetails and managing food plots. He spends over 100 days in the field every year hunting waterfowl. He truly enjoys giving seminars at local shows and events and meeting new people. Fortunate to have his own DU project, he enjoys managing several ponds and marshes.

A conservationist & sportsman, John is the chairperson for a local DU chapter and has been on board with DU for close to 20 years. Devoted to wildlife conservation, he assures the preservation and proper Wildlife management of several properties that he owns & leases.

His most recent commitment is to the QDMA program where over 400 Acres has been set aside on one of his properties to help improve the quality of the deer herd.

John is also Pro Staffer for the following industry related companies: Avery Outdoors, KENT Cartridge, Benelli Canada, Le Chameau, and E.A.R.
