Disabled Ranger Competitive Shooter Helo Pilot Trevor Baucom | Mike Ritland Podcast Episode 216

Trevor Baucom is a former Black Hawk Helicopter Pilot with 13 years in the U.S. Army under his belt. In June of 2010, Trevor's helicopter went down in southern Afghanistan - a violent crash in the desert that rendered multiple fatalities and cost Trevor the use of his legs. During his recovery, Trevor found the world of competitive shooting sports, becoming the first Pro member of Team Smith & Wesson where he competed from a wheelchair.  Later, Trevor would go on to join Team Ruger, competing in multiple pistol and multi-gun tournament championships around the world, along with founding Adaptive Defense - a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) public charitable organization that's serving adaptive and disabled individuals nationwide to be self reliant with a focus on self protection through education, training and competition.
