Phil Robertson, US, Inventor
June 14. Phil Robertson. Phil grew up in a log cabin with no electricity or phone or toilet or bathtub, and he had four brothers and two sisters. And he grew up to be a reality TV star.
Phil says he came up in the 1950s, but it was more like the 1850s, and his family mostly lived off the land.
Must have been some good land because Phil went on to be all-state in football, baseball, and track, and a football scholarship took him on to university. But when the pros tried to recruit him, Phil turned them down because it would interfere with his hunting. For him, football was merely the vehicle to get his education.
And he did. Phil earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education and a master’s degree in education and supported his family as a teacher—until he hit a rough patch. That’s where today’s story comes in. By the way, on this date in 1991, Phil patented the duck call.
Blessing your enemies is hard, but it leads to God-given joy.

Phil Robertson
American professional hunter, businessman and reality television star
For the New Zealand sailor, see Phil Robertson (sailor).
Phil Alexander Robertson (born April 24, 1946) is an American professional hunter, businessman (Duck Commander company), and reality television star on the popular television series Duck Dynasty. He is also featured on the television show Duck Commander, a hunting program on the Outdoor Channel.[1]
He attended Louisiana Tech University, where he played football. He received a master's degree in education and spent several years teaching.
Robertson was the subject of controversy after a 2013 interview he did with GQ magazine, where he said that homosexual behavior was sinful. As a result, A&E suspended him from Duck Dynasty.[2][3][4][5] Facing a strong backlash from his supporters, A&E lifted the suspension after nine days.[6]
In September 2023, a biographical film on the early life of Robertson, The Blind, was released in theaters.
Early life and educ •
Duck Dynasty
Born and raised in Vivian, Louisiana, Phil Robertson came from a large family with seven children and little money. Hunting was in his blood from early on.
As a high-school athlete, Phil earned All-State rankings in football, baseball, and track, which afforded him the opportunity to attend Louisiana Tech University on a football scholarship. There, Phil played first-string quarterback – ahead of Terry Bradshaw, who later went on to lead the Pittsburgh Steelers team to 4 Super Bowl championships. Phil said, “Terry went for the bucks, and I chased after the ducks.” After receiving his Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and a Master’s in Education, Phil spent several years teaching in Louisiana schools. Acclaimed as an excellent teacher by his students, Phil came to the conclusion that his time and talents would be better spent in the woods.
Phil and his family, which by this time included his wife, Kay and four boys, Alan, Jase, Willie and Jep – began a quest to turn his passion for hunting and fishing into a livelihood.
