happy to see my buddy get his first bull
« on: November 08, 2015, 09:45:47 PM »
I can't be more excited for my freind. He shoots all the time, scouts and has been trying for years and he finally connected. I have had him at my place hunting the back 40 and every time the elk were there he wasn't  and vice versa. He really has worked hard and deserves this bull. Good shooting bud.

Awesome! fantastic bull too! I know how hard it can be to make things come together for somebody that is mobility restricted. I don't think this state gives disabled hunters a fair shake. Especially those that are confined to a wheelchair.

My nephew is a disabled hunter. Just about has to shoot from a vehicle as hes paralyzed from the chest down. Even when you see an animal. You have to get things lined up perfectly for him to get a shot. Hard to do without having another hunter beat you to the punch. Just wish this state would give these hunters more, and better opportunities!

The onl;y problem I see with this picture is that your buddy doesn't have a big enough grin on his face!  :chuckle:

Congrats to all for a job well done! :IBCOOL:

Big Wood, that is great, and good for you for the assist!  I hope he tries for the regs front cover photograph.

I can't even imagine how difficult it would be to navigate that mud in such a contraption.  Amazing effort there.

That is really great to see.  I agree that it is very difficult for disabled hunters to harvest an animal. 

I would really suggest he puts in for the cover of the game regs that way we can all say we know that guy.

Congratulations to the hunter and you for letting him hunt your property.

Nicely done by the hunter to stick with it thru thick and thin, I think elk are the hardest big game in the state to hunt.   :tup:

Dandy first. Good on you. I took my nephew out and he got his first. It's really a lot more enjoyable to me to see people getting their first animal or someone who hasn't had much luck get one than me tagging out.
