A 14-Pointer and Memories to Treasure:
Sally’s 2026 CWF3 Whitetail Hunt

An unforgettable weekend at deer camp became even more special when Sally Hegewald harvested an incredible 14-point buck Friday evening during her 2026 CWF3 Whitetail Hunt.


Nominated by friends and family, Sally joined Central Wisconsin Fur, Fin, & Feather (CWF3) for a weekend of hunting, friendship, and making memories with people who care about her.


Sally is currently battling stage 4 breast cancer. Having spent her adult life providing care to others, she has made a difference in many lives. CWF3 was honored to help create a meaningful experience for someone who has given so much.


The successful hunt was a highlight, but the time spent together at deer camp made the entire weekend something to treasure. Sally and her girlfriend, Ann, shared their gratitude for the experience and for the friends who joined them.


“Sally got her 14-pointer Friday evening, and it was such an amazing experience that will never be forgotten,” Ann wrote.


The People Who Made It Possible


A weekend like this takes caring people and months of preparation. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Hogsback Ranch, Turner’s Retreat, and all the friends who helped make Sally’s hunt possible.


A special thank-you goes to Chad and Cindy Pagelsdorf, Jesse and Trisha Kittl, and Joe Lemmer for their hard work throughout the weekend and in the months leading up to it. Your time, effort, and generosity helped create an experience Sally and Ann will always remember.


We are grateful to Sally’s friends and family for nominating her and giving CWF3 the opportunity to be part of this special chapter in her life.



Please join us in congratulating Sally on her beautiful 14-point buck and a memorable weekend at deer camp! 🦌❤️
