Well, dads first year as a disabled Hunter. Drew his disabled hunt for Mission anydeer.

Went up last Friday Morning for the last 5days of the hunt. Hunted all Friday afternoon and evening. Sign but no deer. All morning sat, same result. A couple guys we had seen earlier drove by camp, backed up and we started talking. I told them our story, and they replied, "There's three doe just 40yds of the road 5min away." Hills in the area made it real tough for dad to cover much ground, so he said lets get one. They were nice enough to leads us right to em. Just off the road on a switch back, so we went passed em and got out. Three of them, the biggest bedded down. 125 yards, dad was uncomfortable with his 30-30 So he said I should shoot it for him. I threw out the bi-pod on my .270, laid down, and smoked her! The other two guys even helped me drag her down to the road where the picture was taken with dad. Was about the best experience we've had with other hunters. Those guys were awesome. Thanks again if your out there!! She dressed out to 90 lbs meat n bones. Steaks and sausage comin soon!!

Great job! My buddy is a disabled hunter but hasn't taken advantage of the disabled hunter program yet. He is planning on it next year. Enjoy the deer sausage!

My dad is rapidly approaching that time too.........
But he would never have let me shoot it, he would have taken my gun from me and used it.

Well, that's my ugly mug in the OP. The way my son said it, that area sure had some great people. There wasn't one person that didn't wave or nod when they passed us or we passed them. Even last week, when we were just looking for an area to hunt, we stopped by this one hunter that was loading up. He stopped and talked with us for about 10 minutes telling us all about the area and how the success was that previous week.

And, what a son. He sure took good care of me.

Not bad for my first post too.

I wish I could say that my experience hunting with a disabled hunter was that nice. Instead we were followed out of the hunting area for over 15 miles until we stopped and talked to the guy. He was upset that my buddy, the disabled hunter, had shot a deer on property the we could hunt but was close enough we could drive down the field/farm road and pick it up. It wasn't even near the property this guy owned and even after we showed him a copy of the disabled hunter law he said that the law was B.S. Shortly there after we came upon two Spokane County Sheriff and stopped to talk to them. Neither of the officers knew the law so we showed them the copy we had. They both agreed that we were 100% legal thought one was looking for something to cause us grief.

We also had one guy come by us and cut us off on a dirt road and yell and cuss at us and we were not even hunting. All the guns were in the back and no one had any orange on.

I understand the problems that landowners have with poacher and road hunters but I was utterly offended and if the sheriffs' would have taken the complaint I would have filed the hunter harassment claim.

I also feel that a lot of these landowners in this particular are continue to file damage complaints and get hunters dollars while not allowing anyone hunt and fix the problem.

Sorry to hijack-----just had to vent a little.
