http://www.handgunhunt.com/forum/ubbthre...true#Post147749QUOTE: "I have been setting up a hunt and will be guiding a quadraplegic hunter (Ron) for a mule deer buck..." After several days of hunting in "Blue-Bird weather," today, the weather took a major turn for the worse. But in spite of the snowstorm and 14-16 degree temperatures, Dick (Ron's buddy and a past hunting client of mine) and I finally got Ron in position on a great buck (A LOT OF WORK btw BUT SURE WAS WORTH IT)... Ron, suffering far worse than us in the bad conditions due to his health, bravely toughed it out and made a great shot on this muley buck. He used a semi-auto 30-06 with 180 gr. Winchester Power Points.

Where there is will, there is a way.
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

That's fantastic, Gregg. Congrats to both of you.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Absolutely fantastic! I love to help people with special needs get back into the outdoors. Very humbling and rewarding. reflex264
