WWIA gave me a hunt in South Alabama. Being from South Alabama I grew up hunting the terrain. I had not been to Alabama (my home sweet home) in over 3 years. WWIA got me back down south. I meet 3 fellow troopers that will now become my brothers for life. I made friends that I look forward to keeping in touch with as long as I walk the earth. I want to thank WWIA, Ritchie, Ira, Keith and Bucky for giving me one of the best times…times that will not be forgotten.
