chilcotin hillbillyWound Warriors in Action Bear hunt
This past week week was a very memorable week for me and my wife as we had donated a black bear hunt to WWIA and hosted SGT Major Pat Corcoran who served for 26 years and was blown up in Afganistan 9 months away from retirement.
This hunt was filmed by Nosler Magnum TV anf host Gary Joseph was the perfect host for the job. He feels the same about the men and women serving as my wife and I.
Mike Martell from Action Trackchair Oregon drove this awesome chair up for the hunt. What a Life changing experiance for all of us.
Here is Pat with his bear, a real hero
Mike Martell and Gary Joseph with Gary's bear
The whole crew with Pats bear.
A special thanks to John McDaniel who founded WWIA who accompanied Pat on this trip, a lot of friendships where made.
WWIA is a worthy cause and really helps get the wounded back outdoors.

drummondlindseyJust saw this thread and its the best one I have seen on AR in a long time, maybe ever! I am literally awestruck by the men and women of the armed services. The fact that they signed a blank check with their life to protect and defend all of our freedom is amazing. I will be indebted to them for the rest of my life

Drummond, that is exactly how I feel, even though I live in a different country then a lot of you, we are all in this together.
I hope all the outfitters reading this will get intouch with John McDaniel from WWIA and do what they can to help. I am sure John would be happy to take donations as well to help with the cost of doing these hunts. John for years payed out of his own pocket to get the hero's out doors. I hope everyone reading this says a quick prayer for those in the service.
