Hunt #1- Serve Outdoors Events - One of OWL's newest and promising hunts, the Cuero Turkey Hunt, gives disabled persons the chance to experience the outdoors in April. Whether it's for the first time or a reintroduction into outdoor activities, OWL brings back the joy of the wild to those who are disabled. Through events like this and the annual duck hunt they host every September & whitetail deer hunt in central Texas in November, OWL joins able- bodied persons with disabled hunters so everyone involved can join in the fun of putting the outdoors back into their lives.

For more information on Outdoors Without Limits or to find out how you can join or help on an OWL Event, contact Drew McGuinnes at 979-240-1661 or me at chad@followmeoutdoors.com.

Hunt #4 - TPWD Public Draw System - there are opportunities for all hunters in the TPWD draw every year, and they will make accommodations for disabled hunters if drawn: our State Parks & Wildlife Management Areas that offer hunts by "assigned blinds" will have blinds that are disabled-friendly (larger, easy-access and closer to drop-off points) and make necessary means
available to accommodate the hunter(s) in need. If chosen, you do need to call ahead (prior to your hunt period dates) in order for staff to make arrangements for you and blind selection so that once you arrive, all is ready to go for your hunt.

Fish #1- April - TURNING POINT GULF COAST hosts an annual BLACK DRUM fishing tournament in Galveston Tx. There is a nominal entry fee and lodging is available at numerous local motels. This is a big event and dinner is provided on Friday evening and lunch the following Saturday. It's loads of fun and there are a lot of great prizes to be won.

Last year the tournament was a great success but we need more physically challenged people - kids & adults. We had more boats available so let's try to fill them up this year. CALL WITH ANY QUESTIONS: contact Brent Novelli at (409) 771-0994 or David Gaston at (409) 939-4827.
