I am an amputee. Want to bow hunt again but not sure how to pursue it. I am also considering a crossbow instead of a compound. Its been 2 years since i hunted and i miss it. Oh yeah, not having a place to hunt does not help!!!!



There is only one dumb question: "Why did'nt I ask about that?"

My idea of a trophy deer or hog mount is chicken fried, on my plate, ready to eat!

Disabled hunter via stroke. Lot of roadblocks for me. Opportunities are few and far between.

I am putting in a 3D archery course west of Weatherford, Texas. It is for all archery hunters but I am making this very user friendly for hunters confined to a wheelchair or with walking restrictions. I am building a trailer to secure a wheel chair so the terrain will not be a restriction. I am looking from input from hunters like yourself to make this range the best I can. I intend on not only 3D shooting but maybe even shoot offs for hunts etc as prizes. Any input would be appreciated such as what would make it comfortable like using your own chair or should I make a universal chair for the trailer. Thanks Cooper

i am not military which seems to make it harder to find hunting and sporting opportunities.

I will look around up here. It does not make a difference to me. I think God intended all to be equal. I will do everything I can to find you a hunt. Thanks Cooper

I myself am disabled, in a wheelchair. I would be willing to come out and help set up the course so that you have someone with first hand experience with being in a chair. No gimmicks, just trying to offer to help.

I am a bilateral above the knee and have some upper extremity issues and I shoot both a compound and a recurve. We shoot in Waco pretty regular we can get together and figure it for you.
