Each year for the past 10 years, Badlands has brought hunters together to watch the tales from the field. It’s the place where campfire storytelling becomes art on the big screen. This year was no exception.
From hitting the green to pulling heartstrings, emotions ran high at this year’s festival. Stories of hunting success, personal journeys, endless laughter, and heart-wrenching hardship filled the Old National Centre in Indianapolis.
