Details: During the Hero selection process for this hunt, we learned of two brothers that resided in Oregon, and qualified for an all-expense paid hunt with WHHC. After speaking with Tim McLaren and Andrew McLaren, they were ecstatic and were selected as this year’s participants for our annual Elk hunt in Gold Beach, Oregon.
Heroes Tim and Andrew arrived at base camp and were greeted by Ron and Steve, our hosts and guides. The group got to share a delicious homemade taco dinner cooked by Donna, Ron's beautiful wife. Our generous landowners, Lyle and Diane, came by to join in welcoming the two heroes. After dinner, the Heroes and the guides went on reconnaissance and saw around 30 Roosevelt Elk in the area the Heroes would be hunting the next morning. After their encounter with the herd of Elk the Heroes and their guides returned to camp and shared stories by the campfire.
The next morning the Heroes woke up to a roaring campfire and hot fresh coffee. Shortly after 6am, Steve and Ron arrived at camp to meet up with the Heroes. As tradition, the USA flag was hoisted in base camp and the Heroes were taken to their hunting blinds. On the way to his blind, Tim and his guide bumped into a herd of Elk and decided to take a shot. Tim took his time and ended up making a very good shot and harvested his very first Elk, and it was a spike!
On day two, the Heroes woke up to Elk within range of base camp. Hero Andrew decided that he would like to take a shot at one of the spike Elk and took a shot. After the encounter, Andrew was reflecting on every detail about his shot and shared that his legs were shaking due to the adrenaline rush. After reviewing the camera footage, the team decided it would be best to give the Elk time since the shot looked low. The Heroes returned to camp and distracted themselves by playing Cribbage and the volunteers prepared baby back ribs for dinner.
After four hours of waiting, the team entered the woods and followed the blood trail to find Andrew's spike Elk standing and alive. Andrew took another shot at the Elk, and it was spot on. Andrew had just harvested his very first spike Elk! After a photo session the Elk was taken back to base camp and field dressed. Both Heroes were officially tagged out by mid-day on day two and everyone was extremely pleased with the results. The Heroes enjoyed a fantastic lunch provided by the neighbors and afterwards the Elk were quartered and stored at the neighbors to keep cool.
Congratulations to Heroes Tim and Andrew on their successful hunt. The time they got together in the field is priceless and we are very thankful for our donors and sponsors that continue to help Heroes “Heal On The Hunt’!

Details: WHHC sent 2 Heroes to T.B wilderness Lodge in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania to attend our annual Spring Turkey hunt. Heroes Jimmy King and Calvin Thomas arrived Thursday afternoon where they were greeted by the Belinda family and friends. This hunt is not only about trying to harvest a turkey but is truly the definition of "Healing On The Hunt". The Forecast for the few days did not look to good but it did manage to hold off from raining the first and last morning. The heroes tried their best to harvest a mature Tom and heard turkeys over the few days. They even had a few shots fired but were not able to tag out.  During the Heroes stay, they enjoyed great food, conversation and lots of laughs! Both heroes enjoyed their time spent at T.B. Wilderness Lodge and are looking forward to staying in touch with their new lifelong friendships that were made. Both Heroes have been invited back by the Belinda's to attend a fall Whitetail Deer hunt. A huge thank you to the Belinda Family!

After settling in, everyone was taken out to a nice restaurant for dinner.
The following day all of the heroes were picked up after having breakfast at their hotel and driven to the ranch where they all sighted in their weapons and also was met by Brook Stanbary, a conservation police officer, who gave everyone there Hunting license and Tags and went over all of the procedures. Each Hero was also presented with a Brand new Tactacam 6.0 Camera. We all had lunch at the Cloverleaf ranch and later on went to another fine restaurant for dinner.
On day 2, everyone got up bright and early and left for the ranch at 4:00 AM, we then ate breakfast and the Heroes were taken to their hunting spots. It was a chilly 26 degrees and everyone saw plenty of deer. Hero Chad Rozinsky harvested a mature buck with his Crossbow.
On day 3, nice bucks were taken by Daniel Barnes who was using a muzzleloader and Bernie Altman who was using a shotgun. On the last day of the hunt John Drinkard harvested a nice big doe. Patrick Wickens had several opportunities to harvest a buck but he passed and was hoping to get a shot at one of the monster trophy bucks he had seen. On the final evening Mr. Andy Faville treated everyone to another fantastic meal at a fine dining restaurant. Mr. Andy Faville and his entire family and staff went above beyond to make this event was an unforgettable experience. Our thanks goes out to them and we look so very forward to making this an annual event.

Details: WHHC staffers and veterans Steve Jackson and Anthony Gray were treated by Jeff Kelley to a Veterans Day weekend archery hunt at his beautiful farm in Pennsylvania.
On Friday evening, the bucks were chasing and running does all over the property. No shooters gave either vet a shot.
Veterans Day was on fire. Anthony saw a few shooters and connected around 4:30 PM on a nice 8 point. The buck decided to bury himself in extreme thick terrain down the other side of a mountain. It took Anthony and Steve 2 hours to pull him out!
The guys parted ways on Sunday morning after a relaxing weekend at a beautiful farm!
Huge thanks to Jeff Kelley for sharing his beautiful farm!

Details: We met our friends Zack and Heather Scott from Zack Attack Fishing at the Thompsons Marina for an evening of fun on the bay. Wounded Hero Jeff, and his wife Sheabrie were such a pleasure to have aboard, they both have incredible stories of survival, and it was an honor to be able to serve both of them. The fishing started off slow but after the sun went down the Heroes started hooking into Bull Reds and the fight was on.
Thank you to everyone who continue to support WHHC, these trips would not be possible without you!

Details: Hero Mark and guide Steve arrived at Hupp Outfitters on Sunday evening. They settled in and had an amazing home cooked dinner in anticipation of WHHC’s 4th annual Hupp hunt.
They had an amazing first sit. They saw plenty of deer and at around 8:30, a nice, unique rack buck came in. Mark let one fly with the crossbow. Unfortunately, the shot was a tad low and the buck lived.
During the search, they utilized the services of a thermal drone to assist. The technology is absolutely amazing and is a perfect alternative to a tracking dog. Huge shoutout to Air-Rowe Drone Recovery & Ag Services for donating their time and services!
Mark harvested his first ever deer on Thursday at around 9:00. The shot was perfect on a big doe! They dropped the doe off at Rose's Deer Processing. Another huge shoutout for processing his deer for no charge. They had the deer processed, vacuum sealed and frozen solid in less than 24 hours!
As always, huge shoutout to Hupp Outfittersfor allowing us the opportunity to keep doing this hunt every year! Always amazing people, food and giant bucks!

Details: Last night WHHC had the honor of taking wounded Marine LaShonda and her family fishing on Lake Houston. We met at the Waterside Marina in Huffman and we’re on our way to the fishing grounds at 6:45PM. After a few hours of trolling the coolers began to fill with fish for LoShonda and her family to take home. By 11pm we reached our limits and started our journey back to the marina. It was an absolute pleasure getting LaShonda and her wonderful family out on the water. We can’t wait to see them again.
Once again, our gratitude not only goes to the Heroes and their families, but also to the people behind the scenes that make these trips possible. Zackary Scott and Heather Scott are a few of those people, these two have never turned down the opportunity to take our Wounded Heroes out on the water. Thank you to everyone who supports WHHC and its mission to get Wounded Heroes out "Healing On The Hunt".
