Fathers To Future Men was formed in 2007 when Ken Beck the owner of Black Widow Bows turned over to God’s Great Outdoors Board of Directors, the operation and ownership of a foundation which was established as a result of their family’s 1979 loss. The Scott Beck Memorial Fund was created in memory of Ken’s son who was killed at the age of sixteen as a result of a dune buggy accident. Fathers To Future Men was established because of GGO’s Board of Directors personal relationship with a boy who’s dad had started beating up on the youngster both physically and emotionally, telling his son, “I never want to see you again!” This pheasant hunt is a fund raiser targeted to reach other boys who are or have undergone this type of parental abuse.

Arrive Thursday evening, departure on Sunday afternoon. Fly in hunters will use Sioux Falls, SD airport and then drive through Mitchell, SD. They can stop in the city of Mitchell, SD for supper hour and then visit the Cabela’s, for supplies. Or just travel on through and dine at the Pheasant City Lodge.
