Default RE: disabled hunters?

my disability is my heart, so i still bow, rifle, shotgun and pistol shoot--just a whole lot slower than i used to. can't run after the turkey like before, so i walk and take frequent rest stops. i still get to hunt deer as before, just take a lot longer getting to the stand than before--so i compensate and leave earlier. never let it get you down, or you might not get back up!!--one benefit of being declared disabled and made to retire- i have a lot more time to hunt and fish than i had before. and the game i get sure helps to stretch the budget. only real disappointment is the lack of help that i always tried to show the elderly and disabled that hunted with me when i was younger. don't see that anymore around the camps i have visited lately. i guess times- they are a changing!---Bill
