buckee Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** Geesh, that doesn't sound good at all. Thanks for the call Al, it was good to hear your voice. I'm in for a few bucks. I guess his health insurance doesn't cover that sort thing..eh. I wrote down the number wrong Al. I'm glad you had it posted here too Just talked to Bulldawg(Tom), and he sounds like he's in a lot of pain. I guess he doesn't have accident insurance, so he has no idea right now how much this upset in his life is going to cost, out of pocket. Tom's not a wealthy guy. He's just a hard workin stiff like most of us guys in here. I think maybe we should move this to the lounge and get a decent fund raiser going to help out a fellow hunter and friend in need. What do you think Al? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2008 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** That is really sad to hear. I hope that he has a quick recovery. A question that I have is was he wearing a safety harness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** He has a safety harness up in the tree, that he hooks into when he gets up there, but was climbing freehand. He said he had about 3 steps to go, when he inadvertantly grabbed a branch, that of course broke off, since most branches below the canopy are dead and rotten.

texastrophies Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** Sorry to hear that. Are we going to do something as a group or just individuals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** Hang in there Bulldawg, so sorry to hear about this yesterday from your son. We can do things as individuals and maybe try to sell things in the classifieds with proceeds going to Bulldawg! A Bulldawg type auction. A person posts the item for sale and the buyer sends the payment right to the Bulldawg....... the seller then sends the item to the buyer. Maybe that way is easier for some to get funds to our fallen friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** I know I'll be helping out any way I can!

ThethirdI Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Re: ***ITS TRUE....OUR BULLDAWG IS HURT BAD****** I hate to hear about things like this. I just bought one of those "Fall Guy" systems recently to avoid one of these accidents. They are expensive but I think that they are worth the money if you can spare it. I hope Bulldawg gets well soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
