Who we are
Stetson Wheat, Founder of Great Beyond Outdoors LLC, is an avid sportsman who is passionate about hunting, wildlife conservation, faith, and adventure.
Stetson grew up on a ranch in central Texas where he could grab a gun or fishing pole, walk out the front door, and go hunt or fish at will.
He comes from a family of avid outdoorsmen, and some of his earliest memories are of DIY trips in the Rockies with his dad and brothers.
They still continually put in the work to find consistent success on low-odds DIY public land hunts for multiple species across the West, and they also provide excellent hunts to other outdoorsmen.
Stetson has a passion for his faith and for the remote, forgotten reaches of the world. He spent 5 years leading Christian missionary expeditions into the most remote regions of Africa as a full-time minister and has extensively traveled through almost every continent.
He has also found a deep-seated love for Alaskan hunting and has developed connections with tribal groups across the western part of the state.
He now markets hunts in various states and regions, connecting dreamers with key people who can turn those dreams into reality.
