This has just been brought to my attention and I would like to ask those of you that have gear laying around collecting dust to help this guy out.
I am going through all my stuff and making up a package to send to him.
Here is Bill's story.
You think you've got problems. Bill Fetzner from Hayward, Wisonsin was diagnosed with non hodgkins lymphoma cancer about 4 years ago. After battling it into recession(there is no cure) he was getting on with life. He built his dream home over the last two years, doing much of the work himself. May 31st lightning struck his house and burnt it up. It was totaled. He and his wife got out with the clothes they were wearing. Try to imagine losing everything you own. Billis an avid hunter and fisherman. He lost every gun,bow,fishing rod, and all the clothing and gear that go with it. Not to mention a lifetime of his trophy mounts. They can never be replaced. Even the pictures of them are gone. At age 57 he has to start over. As probably most of us he has insurance but never really read the policy. It of course falls considerably short.
So you think you've got problems.I thoughtI did, but they seem pretty small now. Instead of counting my problems, I'm counting my blessings.

I'll start going through the house and see if I can't help him out. Regardless, prayers sent for his entire family in this time of need.

Hey Russell what does he need to get him started,I have a couple of rest and sights that are of high quality,but if we all just start mailing him gear he could wind up with 20 sights,ect.i also have a mathews bow,but I think maybe you should make a list of what he needs and anyone here could maybe send him something off the list so he doen't end up with a bunch of one item and not get something he needs.
Guy's
He does not need a bow or arrowsthat has already been taken care of.
But broadheads camo and other hunting gear would be gratefull.
For that matter ordinary every day clothes would do as he and his wife only got out of the house with the clothes they where wearing.
Those of you who cant donate anything maybe send him a short note letting him know we are thinking of him, I know it does not sound like much but having him know there are people out there who are thinking of him and saying prayers for him will mean the world and lift his spirits.
