I am going to give away a Sako Rifle, a Beretta Shotgun, a Kimber 1911 Pistol, and a Bush Monkey Knife. I am going to have a drawing in Dec of 2013 to give these away. All you have to do to be entered in the drawing is you have to take a Military Member, Law Enforcement, Fire Fighter or, EMT hunting. Now this has to be a person that is either new to hunting or at least new to you. Taking your buddies that you hunt with all the time does not count.
I have taken a couple of these guys hunting and I know that several others on here have done the same. I think it is the most rewarding hunt you can do. So to sweeten the pot I will give those guns away to encourage you to give it a whirl.
All you have to do is post a picture on the THF Photo Section and shoot me a PM after the hunt. We will draw names out of the hat and give the prizes away around Christmas time 2013.
You can take a guy on a hog hunt, deer hunt, duck hunt, goose hunt, or any kind of hunt. I want to see smiles in the picture and fellowship past on....
Good Luck and Happy Hunting!!!

Made offers to a few already, but haven't had lots of takers, will keep you updated.
Nathan is right, once you take guys hunting that wouldn't have had a chance to without you it changes you. I took some absolute strangers from the THF last year. Meet them here, threw out the offer and we went. 2 of them are now what I'd consider friends. One is back over in the sand box and we will be slaying ducks when he gets back.

I've been trying to do some hunts the last two yrs, but no water. If anyone knows a hunter, let me know. We have gravel trails to our blinds. I can handle moderate handicap in that I can boat to the blind but they need to get in and out.
I'm good for two hunts this yr. likely will fall on a Wednesday.
If i win i will donate the gun to the wounded warrior project.

Nate, I just recently got linked up with a young Soldier that has never been Dove hunting. I will be taking him out and outfitting him with one of my guns, shells, the whole 9 yards. I will submit pics of smiles with kills etc. I do not want to be entered into the drawing though. I'm just paying it forward like you did for a certain service member not long ago when I had always wanted to go on an axis hunt and you made it happen. I am now going to make it happen for this young man!! THANK YOU and HWOH for all you do for our Service Men/Women.

My son is a wounded warrior and loves to hunt, if someone in the New Braunfels area wants to take someone.

Nathan, Thanks for what you do.
I will definatly be on the look out for someone to take. And concerning the prize, let's just say that a wounded warrior may be the winner.

I would like to say Thank yall for all of your support. It's hard enough on me that my parents, sisters and brother criticizes me for being in the military and being brain washed and they still haven't figure out why I don't talk to them much.

If you guys need any military members especially around San Antonio or Austin let me know I still have a lot of friends who are in and some that are involved with military charities around DFW.
Thanks Nathan for everything that you do. It means a lot.
