Disabled Son's Deer Hunt: BUCK DOWN Y'ALL!

[bearpaw]

In NE WA the only unit with an antlerless season for disabled hunters is GMU 124. I think this may change in the not too distant future, after the mild winter I've seen a slight increase in deer numbers this summer. We used to have antlerless hunting in NE WA for disabled, seniors, and youth.

I'm not sure but YJ (Craig) may have some antlerless hunting in his area?

Is there anterless for youth in any of the NE units this year?

I have plenty of spots in the NE corner any buck units that he could sit for a few days and have a darn good chance of killing a deer. Some are easy to access so I would be willing to help

How far you willing to drive? Walla walla area doable?

I searched but could not find it, thought someone recently posted about too many deer in the yard?  Not sure if modern was an option.

Where are you guys located? I could help fill a tag. I’m located in Olympia currently but cover the entire state often. Shoot me a message if you still need help!

Tagging along. Best wishes.  And I echo KB's sentiment.

@!Xabbu has an archery opportunity in the Port Angela's/Sequim area posted on this youth board. Perhaps crossbow would be an option? Several good looking deer.

Hunt Wa Family you always amaze me! This is one of the main reasons why I love this forum! Though I don't post a lot, I'm on here daily and have many friends within this community.  This includes Josh the OP.  Josh and I went to high school together and their family have traveled across the US to ensure their son receives the best treatment from the top doctors around!

He is strong little man and very deserving of any help we can give him! Thank you to the members who have already sent PM's to the OP. Lets be patient with his response as Josh (OP) is active LE and works different schedules.  Their family is a family based on faith and built on a foundation of love and public service!

Josh welcome to the forum! I will call you this weekend to catch up... been too long!

If a crossbow is needed (or anything else for that matter)  I'll throw a $100 at it. 

[Wunderlich33]

Great call Karl... I'll match the $100 as well!

Hey all, it was suggested that I post here as I'm looking for assistance to help on my son's first deer hunt.  My son is 11 years old and this will be his first year hunting.  Although he is beyond excited about this, both he and I (and of course his mama) have a great deal of concern due to his difficulty in walking any great distance.  My son was born without a right hip joint and a deformed right femur.  He has had at least 12 surgeries to grow and shape his body but he remains greatly limited in his mobility.  He tries to push himself and we don't go easy on him but I know that he is in constant pain and I would love to alleviate some of the difficulties and make this first year hunting a bit easier.  With these challenges, I'm looking to see if anyone has any nuisance deer or knows of where my son could have a chance to shoot an animal this fall.  I'm not looking for any sort of trophy buck, I just want him to have some success and ignite a love for hunting.  I understand that this may be a big ask but any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you so much.

Josh

 

Josh,

I have just the place for your son and we always save it for something like this. We have several smaller type 3 point bucks with the occasional small four points. Relatively easy hunt, not a lot of walking involved and would probably shoot out of a ground blind. This is in the Ellensburg area for Mule Deer on private ground. He could use a rifle or muzzy in this unit and I have several kid rifles if needed.

I would be more then happy to help you and your son with his first buck hunt. You guys would want to be here for the opener of the general rifle season for the best results. PM me if you are interested. I will be in AK for part of August and September but here in Eburg the rest of the time. I'm sure we could even find a time for you and your son to come over here prior to the season to do some scouting and to see some deer before the season, as this is always a lot of what the kids his age enjoy and is a big part of what will make his hunt fun!

Josh, you need to take Pinetar up on his amazing offer! Seriously, say yes 

Pinetar, good on you buddy! Quit playing with fish and get back here for the serious stuff

[Wunderlich33]

I just texted him... he will be on when available

[Wunderlich33]

Pinetar, Thank you for this offer! I'm sure he'll be taking you up on it!
