    Disabled Vet hunting in Arkansas

    One of the organizations that I'm with, Arkansas Freedom Fund, helped this disabled vet get a deer this morning. They have 2 of these tracked power chairs to get them in to where ever they want to go. This summer we built a ground blind that one of the walls folds down into a ramp so they can drive the chair right into.

    With the tracks he can drag his deer out by himself too. Great idea.

    Fantastic Work !

    What a feeling, to be able to Hunt Again.
    The cool crisp air in your lungs.
    The blood starting to race through your body as the Buck steps into range.
    The cool stock against your cheek, the Perfect sight picture through the scope.
    The rough feel of the trigger as you squeeze, ever so gently. The recoil as it pounds your shoulder.
    Your head comes up off the stock, you see the Buck stagger......down he goes, as his legs fold under him.
    A CLEAN KILL.
    What a Precious Gift to a Man who despaired of ever experiencing it again.

    You are a GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS.

    GOD BLESS YOU ALL
