The sport of archery, bowhunting, and venturing into the wilderness has become a popular form of therapy, especially for veterans of the military and the first responder community.
Focusing on the topic of archery, modern studies have validated the therapeutic benefits of the stick and string in relation to the mind and body. I personally have found great improvements in mental health, and my passion for archery hunting motivates me to achieve improved levels of physical fitness.
From a 3-D archery standpoint, non-competitive courses and events have begun to pop-up all over the nation. Some attempting to simulate the rigors of mountainous and backcountry environments. Other organizations are leveraging 3-D archery events to benefit specific communities.
This episode hosts one of the individuals focusing on the veteran community through his newly established non-profit, the Valor Archery Challenge. Tune in as we spend the next hour with Sam Westfall, founder and owner of Valor Archery Challage. Sam is a veteran himself, loves archery, and desires to give back to both communities.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
