The Blueline Bowhunters was originally founded on sharing our love of the outdoors and helping others along the way. This year we have teamed up with the awesome members of the Raised at Full Draw crew. Raised at Full Draw (RAFD) is an organization dedicated to exposing youth and adults to archery, bowhunting and outdoor education. For the purpose of getting closer to nature, conserving and managing wildlife to help maintain healthy populations.
RAFD was established to help reduce the declining participation of hunters nationwide. RAFD believes in having a direct positive impact on the future of hunting to help increase and retain hunters. One way for the organization to do that is with a hands on approach and interaction through the means of bowhunting. In order to meet our mission, RAFD offers hands on educational hunting camps to youth ages 12-17 in various locations across the country as well as Outdoor Retreats for Women and a newly established family camp.
In this episode, Matt and Jared sit down at the ATA show in St. Louis with RAFD's creator, David Holder (Raised Hunting) and the Chief Operating Officer, Donise Peterson.
