WHAT PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING!

Jennifer Hearle, Vance, Ala.

“I love the judgement-free environment. I never felt uncomfortable. I felt at ease the whole time, and my confidence in hunting has increased tremendously. This program has changed my life, and I would not have found this passion, rekindled my relationship with my brother, or gotten closer to my husband, if it was not for all of you!”

Forrest Evans, Huntsville, Ala.

“I cannot say thank you enough for the opportunity that you gave me with the Adult Mentored Hunt last weekend. It was a wonderful experience and I truly learned a lot. I have definitely caught the hunting fever and plan to be a lifetime hunter, as well as introduce the sport to my children.”
