The Elite Team sends a special congratulations to dreamhunt winner, 14 year old Austin Kratt. Austin won a turkey hunt in Michigan at Valhalla Ranch. Over this past weekend Austin traveled to Valhalla, along with his Dad, Mike. On the first morning of the hunt the guys were able to get on some birds, but did not shoot. That evening, they again got onto some nice birds and Austin took a HUGE tom. The bird had a 13" beard, inch and 1/4 spurs and weighed in at 24lbs. Great job guys and CONGRATULATIONS to Austin on his first successful turkey hunt!



Hey Folks,
While traveling back from Iowa, Elite Team members Chris and Chuck Keefer were involved in a severe car accident on I-80. Chuck was able to walk away with some torn ligaments, however Chris was not so lucky. Local fireman were called to the scene to remove Chris from the vehicle with the jaws of life. He suffered a broken femur, foot, ankle and orbital bone as well as many cuts and brusies. Chris will undergo a few more surgeries this week but is receiving the best possible care. We appreciate all of your support and we ask that you keep Chris and Chuck in your prayers. Chris has a tough battle in front of him and a long road to recovery but with all the support that he has been receiving, we are sure that he will fight through it and get back to 100%. Thank you again for all of your support.


Shoot Straight,
The EliteTeam
