Default Madder than hell at my wife and mother in law. Free hunt.

I am so pissed I could scream. My father in law gave up his two leases in Georgia last year due to a debilitating nerve condition. He falls over a bit now and it is just damn hard for him to walk far at all. He LIVES to hunt. You go in his house and there is not a coffee table, bed stand, or back of a toilet that doesn’t have a hunting magazine on it. He was going to sell all his rifles but I told him to keep one to kill himself with because that is what he was doing if he sold them all. Well I got a grand notion in my head that I would give him this year to hunt and do the work. I got the lease up in Lafayette county Florida. I have three feeders and a fourth going in two weeks. I have placed two, two man ladder stands for comfort and have established a ground blind that you can drive right up to at the end of a road with a feeder and salt block set at 19 yards and 7 inches. I put in a chair with armrests and I put in a bar so he can pull himself up out of his seat. I have the entire road planted with iron clay peas and have basically worked my ass off putting this whole f’ing whiz bang together to give him the best damn year I can.

Now here is the crap. When I go over to their house about every other week we get together and ogle the deer pictures from my game cams like two 13-year-old boys that found out the Internet has porn. He smiles like a kid in a candy store and I love to show him the 10 point (I used to think 8) in velvet that has been walking right past his ground blind around 6:30 every morning. He is really looking to have great hunting year and I want to give it to him. MY MOTHER IN LAW AND WIFE SAY NO!!!! They do not want him to go because they are afraid he might get hurt. My wife and I got into a pissing match with the inevitable outcome of the fact that I lost. I told her that I hope to God some day some young guy will strap my dive gear on me and shove me off the side of the boat so I can die shooting my last grouper. She was very much unaffected. So I cannot believe that I am not going to be taking him hunting. I even thought about just telling them to kiss my butt and kidnap him but I would be on the couch for a Looonnngggg time. So on September the 20th opening day of archery for deer happens in sunny Florida and I worked to damn hard on that stand not to put someone in it. It sounds kind of weird but I made it as accessible for a person with a disability as I was able. I would like to give it to someone that might not have a chance to hunt because they are a bit stuck and cannot get through the woods like they used to or ever did before. Kids are ok but they have to have a chaperone.

Here are the details

It is a ground blind that can seat 2 people in it.
There is a feeder 19 yards in front and a salt block 22 yards to the right.
You can drive right up to the blind with a car or truck.
The deer trail comes from the woods and walks right past the front window.
I got deer and hogs hitting it every day and all day.
Please shoot some does also, we have WAY to many
Price: FREE![/ul]

So anyone know anybody that wants to go to Mayo, Florida and try for a deer on opening day. Hell I even got a dually that would hold a wheelchair just fine.

Pop me a pm with a number and details if interested.
