Unlock the therapeutic power of archery and discover its profound impact on veterans in our latest episode featuring Sam Westfall, a former Army M1 Abrams tank systems mechanic turned IT professional and entrepreneur. Sam shares his inspiring journey from a seven-year military career to founding Archery in Motion. You'll learn how his passion for archery and hunting, which began even before his military service, became a crucial tool for managing PTSD, offering a deeper connection and camaraderie than rifle hunting ever could.
