About Us

Honest Outdoors Oklahoma is a non-profit youth hunt program dedicated to providing valuable learning experiences for children between the ages of 10 and 15. Our primary focus is on teaching firearm safety, hunting skills, and proper animal handling techniques to young individuals who have a genuine interest in the outdoors.

Founded in 2020 by a passionate group of sportsmen, Honest Outdoors Oklahoma aims to bridge the gap for children who may not have the means to explore the world of hunting but possess a strong desire to learn. Situated in the beautiful state of Oklahoma, renowned for its abundant wildlife, especially whitetail deer, we recognize the tremendous opportunities the region holds for outdoor enthusiasts.

Our program began when Doug, Dusty, and Patrick came together in a dove field and created a plan to bring youth hunts to the community. Their first attempt was a great success, as six children successfully hunted their first whitetail deer. This accomplishment motivated them to make Honest Outdoors Oklahoma an annual tradition.

In addition, we are fortunate to have a dedicated group of volunteers and sponsors who generously contribute their time and resources to ensure these hunts are provided to our participants at no cost. Our volunteers consist of enthusiastic individuals who share a passion for hunting and possess extensive knowledge in the field. Their unwavering support greatly enhances our program and enriches the experiences of our hunters.

With a lifelong dedication to hunting and a profound love for the great outdoors, our team of experienced hunters, willingly devotes their time during Oklahoma's youth gun season to communicate the essentials of hunting, gun safety, and field dressing. They understand the value of sharing their expertise and passion with young individuals and their parents, creating an enriching experience for all participants.

At Honest Outdoors Oklahoma, we believe that through responsible hunting education, we can instill respect for wildlife, promote firearm safety, and foster a deeper connection with nature. We are committed to providing a supportive and engaging environment where children can develop valuable skills, gain confidence, and cultivate a lifelong appreciation for the outdoors.
