My story
A Hunter, Sportsman, and Pet Owner — Just Like You
I am a hunter, sportsman, and pet owner just like you. I know exactly how it feels to lose that trophy animal or the beloved family pet. That feeling is what drove me to start Flying Badger Drone Services.
I have lived in this area my entire life and have hunted in most of the townships in the area at least once over my time as a sportsman. Now in my early 60s, I wanted to find a way to keep giving back to the community I love — and the drone turned out to be the perfect tool for that.
I didn't start this business to get rich. I started it to help out fellow sportsmen and pet owners when it matters most — because I've been there myself. There are many drone services out there, but I will do my absolute best to be the best at finding what is important to you.
