Squirrelhunter91 Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 My brother took his hunter ed course the last few days and there was a guy there in a wheelchair looking to obtain a certificate so he can get his license and go hunting. This deer season my dad and I might be taking him hunting with us onto our property. We exchanged phone numbers and stuff like that.. He is a great guy. I think he got injured in the Marines a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] LOL...I hope my buddy 3legs sees this He knows what that's all about . We've both had a few good laughs over that, especially when I come over after he shoots and say "Which way did he head Ken?" ....and he says "I don't know...I was on the ground" ....LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washi Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Re: Might take disabled hunter hunting [ QUOTE ] He said the only thing he is worried about is tipping over after the shot... [/ QUOTE ] He shouldn't worry too much. The only time I have even tipped back any at all was when I was shooting some stout turkey loads, and I didn't go over even then. Still might be a good idea to have someone stand behind him the first time he practices. It's a good thing you are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bexar_county89 Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Re: Might take disabled hunter hunting That is a very sweet favour you'd do for him, I work as a volunteer at a veterans hospital, I couldn't believe how many of them want to go hunting again, maybe they could set up something like that you know? good luck joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christsavedme Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Re: Might take disabled hunter hunting We have a family friend that has been in a wheelchair for the last 12 years from a car wreck and we take him out a couple of times every year. It is such a blessing to sit back and watch him enjoy something that he never thought he would get to again! Best of luck to you and God bless you!
