HeadGear for Heroes Hunting Club was created to send combat wounded heroes on all expense paid deer hunts in Iowa. We strongly believe that hunting and enjoying the great outdoors helps veterans to overcome physical and mental injuries sustained in combat. Our goal is to provide them with a completely stress free environment where they can relax and enjoy deer camp with Straight Arrow Outfitters
