If anyone could take a quick look and give me some pointers, that would be great. I tried to throw some humor in there, not sure if it landed or not. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

It's not too bad. I'd suggest taking a really great head shot to use as your main pic. Keep the great smile but ditch the cap.

All the sports you're talking about should go in the Interests box. You'll see more Matches and appear in the ladies' Matches more often. Don't forget stuff like every outdoor activity you like. Hunting, fishing, Lawn Darts, etc. Also any other activity you like that you can think of. How 'bout Piercings? Pool & Billiards, etc, etc. Card games like Poker, if you play it.

You should write a paragraph describing the type of lady you'd like to meet.

Your last line about contacting you is unnecessary. The ladies know how to play this game.

I'd get rid of the mileage restriction. Miss Right might be 76 miles away.

You might want to look at the Profile Writing Tips at the top of the Review forum. Good stuff in there for targeting your writing. Yours is kinda bland....too many sentences start with 'I'.

Your disclaimer got a laugh but I'm not sure how it relates to your First Date when you say it's not 'typical'. Difficult to assess.

Good profile - also laughed at the disclaimer and agree lose the cap in a few more of your pics.

Thanks for the tips, I tried adding a few more non-cap pics, added in a bit about the kind of person I'm looking for (which I probably should have realized was an important part of a profile setup).

I rather liked your profile. I hope you are following up by messaging the ladies. if you wait to be messaged , you could be waiting a long time.
