About this listen

Big Country Veterans has grown into one of the few places where community feels as steady and familiar as it did in uniform. What begins each year as a helicopter hog hunt on the wide ranch land of Truscott, Texas quickly becomes something deeper. The hunt may be the headline, but it works like an allegory for the real mission: giving veterans a vantage point high enough to see their lives with clarity again.


Under Dr. Cody Palmer and COO Michael Grohman, the Circle Bar Ranch becomes a place where rank, politics, and posturing fall away, and the only requirement is presence.Alumni nominate who comes next. Sponsors stand shoulder to shoulder with warriors. Veterans show up days early to prepare the ground, sleeping in trucks so others can experience what once changed them. The helicopter blades may draw the eye, but the real movement happens in the quiet conversations that follow, when guarded veterans realize the room is safe enough to share their story.Palmer brings the insight of a clinician who understands what trauma carves into the body. Grohman brings the steadiness forged in Special Operations. Together, they’ve built a community that follows veterans home.For many, that weekend gives them room to breathe and decide what comes next.Special thanks to @Michael Grohman and Dr. Cody Palmer for making it out to Frisco.
