Men’s Alaska Fishing/ Husband Coaching Camp
Dear Pastors and Men's group leaders,
My name is Jim Ramsey. I have been a pastor and marriage counselor for over 50 years, with state Marriage Counseling licenses in California and Montana. I established the first Calvary Chapel in Montana and Aletheia Marriage Counseling in 1979. I was bi-vocational until I retired from the church in 2013, but have continued my counseling practice.
At this stage of my life, I am very excited to introduce a ministry focused on coaching husbands to be more successful in their marriages. To this end, I’m presenting my first ever Men’s Alaska Fishing and Husband Coaching Camp. The camp will last a full week, from Aug.22 through August 30. It will involve all day fishing for salmon and halibut, both in rivers and in the sound with charter boats. In addition, they will have access to a world-class 3D archery course on the private island where the camp is located. At the end of each day, after a wonderful dinner, they will receive husband coaching provided in a very male oriented, humorous, yet very effective way.
I am an avid fisherman myself and have served as a fishing guide and can relate to men very effectively in this context. I propose to treat them the way I would as a “fishing guide,” only in this case as a “husband guide.” I will be teaching him how to truly “take care of his girl,” while still feeling respected, appreciated and admired as a truly masculine man.
Within this letter, the Men's Alaska Fishing an Husband Coaching link takes you to brief videos and specific information about this camp that can be presented to your church and/or your men’s group on a Big Screen. Please watch these videos yourself and see if you think there are men in your church who would be interested and significantly benefited. (Also, wives seeing this presentation in church, may increase the number of men attending.) Within the context of this link is also all the information needed to sign up for the camp, with all the directions and specific details necessary to get there.
I am also offering a special free bonus for the first 10 men who sign up to have a free Couple’s Checkup Marital Inventory on-line through the Gottman Institute, as well as a free 2- hour internet Zoom session on- line with me to go over the results of this inventory.
Along with many pounds of frozen fillets, I’m sure their wives will also appreciate the opportunity to participate with their husbands in a meeting with me after the free Gottman inventory, to go over the results and be informed about much of what was covered with her husband at the camp.
In addition, I am offering a 20% reduction for pastors or staff members. If you have any questions about this opportunity, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Today, it’s pretty easy to find yourself insulated from real outdoors and hunting experiences if it isn’t a part of your family’s lifestyle. This is especially true if you’re a kid and you don’t have a guiding figure to introduce you to the life outside.
That’s where Outdoors Network International has found a way it can make an impact. As part of their services to the community, they provide immersive hunting and fishing opportunities in austere locations to kids who may not normally get that chance back at home. Their goal is to pass along the idea of our American outdoors heritage and inspire the next generation of outdoors enthusiasts. On top of their support to kids, they provide wounded veterans the chance to attend and help mentor these enthusiasts in training by pairing them up with the kids to teach them how to operate and thrive in the outdoors. A few of us from Magpul were fortunate enough to take some time off to help out with their latest trip to northern Montana for some big game hunting

A cold fall trip to Montana literally means that you’re getting away from it all. Pretty awesome. Pretty dependent on that tent stove. |

It’s cold in Montana, and the temps drop down close to zero every few days, adding an extra layer to the experience. Snow comes and goes, but mostly it just blows around and repositions itself every night. The small stoves in everyone’s tents have to be fed throughout the night, so there’s a lot of replenishing the woodpile, and the children and adults both take turns chopping it for the next meal or the next cold night. The phones don’t work out there, so the focus on the experience is total. Groups of twos or more show up for a few days and then move on; they share the opportunity to spend some real time away with strangers and walk away with new friends and stories their friends will hardly believe.

Zeroing your rifle. Transportation. Deciding a plan of action. All things necessary to having a successful hunt. |
Over the course of two weeks, children and adults come and go from the base camp, where everyone lives in canvas tents and takes their meals from the small but well-stocked chow hall. Throughout the day, hunters head out in small groups and set out into the wilderness for a few hours or the whole day, looking for mule deer, whitetail, antelope and elk. Few come back without a story to tell of long stalks, exciting action, and the long haul back with their quarry. The barn where their bounty is stored quickly fills with enough meat to feed everyone for months, and no one leaves in the end empty-handed.
Outdoors Network International has found a crossroad between children wanting to experience hunting and military veterans looking to continue serving their fellow man. They’ve established a simple, yet effective program dedicated to allowing veterans to share their knowledge and expertise with these children. With its one-of-a-kind environment, Montana is the perfect backdrop for this outdoor classroom.

ONI takes pleasure in presenting Herd Bull University. ONI was able to facilitate this incredible event in conjunction with Tray Ardese an ONI Board Member, John Howell NFL Super Bowl Champion, Hans Marrero from the Black Belt Hall of Fame, and Scott Zimmerman a former NFL player and business owner. ONI would like to thank all involved with the course.
