ABOUT US
ABOUT WILD WISCONSIN
David and Trent met their freshman year at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh in 2014. They quickly realized that they had a shared interest in the outdoors, specifically hunting waterfowl. Although equipment and free time were limited, David and Trent took every opportunity they had to get out in the field. A couple years passed of some success (but mostly failures), and they started to realize they had what it took to make the next step. In 2016, they officially formed Wild Wisconsin.
At the time, it was nothing more than a couple guys that wanted to make a name for themselves that loved hunting birds. Wild Wisconsin progressed each year by gaining equipment, relationships, and recognition from the community and well-known hunting brands. They are now putting together donation hunts to raise money for people in need, speaking at local wildlife conservation events, trading hunts with other outfitters across the US, and guiding people that share their passion, whether its their 1st or 1000th hunt.
OUR TEAM
DAVID VOET
Co-owner
David got into the outdoors at a very young age with the influence of his Father, Ed. What started out as a love for the outdoors quickly turned into a passion, then an obsession. He started Wild Wisconsin in 2016 with Trent, and grew it into a well-known waterfowl hunting group in the Fox Valley area. He plans on continuing to grow the brand by providing world-class hunts, locally.
TRENT FARRELL
Co-owner
Trent Farrell is also Co-founder of Wild Wisconsin. Through his Grandfather, Trent discovered his love and passion of “waterfowling” at a young age. He is very passionate about the sport and spends as much time in the blind as possible. His favorite type of waterfowl hunting is shooting divers on the big water, but is happy with anything that comes in the decoys.

Canadians to diver hunting out of layouts nothing seems more appealing than being out in God's country.

Drake's happiness comes from capturing the raw emotion and excitement of every moment during the hunts.
