I am putting together the schedule for this years hunts that I plan to do in support of our heros. If you are retired (don't care how long) or active duty, ARMY, NAVY, AIR FORCE, or MARINE, a Police Officer, or Firefighter and you want to go hunting here are my plans:

Sept 2012 Aoudad Hunt
Oct 2012 Red Stag Hunt
Nov 2012 Whitetail Hunt (Buck and Doe)
Dec 2012 Whitetail Hunt (Buck and Doe)
Jan 2013 Fallow Deer Buck
Feb 2013 Sika Stag
Mar 2013 African Style Water Buffalo

Just so you know, I am not an organization I am just 1 guy taking guys hunting. So, I need a fair way to pick who goes on what hunt. So this is what I am going to do. Shoot me a PM in the next 2 weeks, with a picture of you in your uniform. I will put the pictures in a hat and pull them out, the first pull gets the Sept hunt, the second gets the Oct, and so on.

If you are interested PM me. I am doing this to say thanks. I wish I could do more but this is what I got. Please shoot me a PM, and we will see where this goes. I will pull the winning names on May 17, 2012

All Hunts will be near Austin, TX in either Burnet or Blanco County. Please keep this in mind. The hunt will include Room and Board for 1 or 2 nights, meals, meat processing, and the hunting.

Thank you guys in uniform for all you do to keep us safe...

X2. I would love to have my name in the drawing but I don't want in. The military guys have sacrificed a lot more than I ever will so I'm gonna stay out of their way.

Same here, 28 yr ff. As cool and out of reach some of those hunts would be for me, I'll stay out for the military guys as well. They are much more deserving. Thank you sir for giving back to those who have served our country.

Yep, I'm a 24 year LE veteran. I think those military kids have done so much and sacrificed so much that they deserve it way more than I. I'd still like to help out in any possible.

Thats very cool. I may put in the hat, but I'd like to see a recently returned soldier or NCO go in my stead....lead from the front. Great offer Sir.
