🇺🇸 Last weekend we had the incredible honor of sending several deserving female veterans and first responders on an all-female bowfishing trip in Michigan!

A huge thank you to Modified Outdoors Bowfishing Charters and Cpt. Hunter for once again stepping up to host an unforgettable experience for our veterans. We were also proud to partner again with Women of the Wild to help make this trip possible. The professionalism, passion, and heart shown by both organizations are truly second to none.

This trip brought together female veterans from the Army, Navy, and Air Force for a weekend filled with laughter, camaraderie, new experiences, and plenty of arrows flying across the Michigan waters! These women showed up ready to learn, let loose, and absolutely crush it out on the water. 💪🎯

Moments like these are what Ultimate Veteran Adventures is all about — creating opportunities for our veterans and first responders to reconnect, heal, and build lasting friendships through the outdoors.

We are beyond grateful for partnerships with organizations like Women of the Wild and Modified Outdoors Bowfishing Charters, and we’re excited for many more collaborations in the future!

Thank you again to all the amazing women who joined us, and most importantly… thank you for your service. 🇺🇸
