Title: Montana elk help for double amputee friend
Post by: teegansdad on June 05, 2019, 07:23:36 AM: Looking for some advice on a reputable guide or land owner for an elk hunt for a double leg amputee from Maryland. We have received his Purple Heart tags from Montana and just want to make this a good experience. I don’t mind paying for land owner or guide service

Can try and get access for at least a cow tag. I’ll help cover his tresspass fees if can gain access

Also offer to help in transportation and help process elk.

https://montanawoundedwarriors.org/ is only for Montana resident Purple Heart vets, but they may be able to help with information.

I'm a member of the Facebook group Hunting with Heroes Wyoming, you might contact them and see if they have a Montana contact.

Best of luck!

Stay in touch in you strike out elsewhere. I was not planning on hunting that piece this year. Maybe I can get Ribka to go scout it out. It would be a DIY hunt with trespass fee that could possibly be waved for your cause.

Post by: teegansdad on June 06, 2019, 05:28:21 AM: Thanks for the replies, we had something worked out with another trespass fee lease and it fell through due to going to block management this year. So we are starting over this year. Last year we had a different double amputee and was able to get him his mule deer and antelope. This year we hope to make a memorable outing for Jon with a deer and elk tag. Both general season tags. Thanks for all the replies and we will keep up the search.
