Got a buddy who's left leg is nerve dead from mid thigh down and he was denied. Don't know the exact criteria for that permit but it aint easy to get. Those guys you're seeing Sproul are either BS'ing about having the permit or they really scammed someone to get it.
I used to put on a 3D shoot for PA Sportsemn for the disabled at Conemaugh lake and know of several hunters from that organization that had disabled rermits to hunt from vehicles and every one of them had some paralysis or were amputees.
