son' s going to hunt
 

Finally was able to get my 13 yr. old thru the hunter ed. course. now I need to get the ball rolling on a crossbow permit for him and get him a bow looks like he won' t be left out of hunting this yr. I am very excited for him.

HOSS,

Is your son disabled? Either way, I am excited for you both. It is our younger generation that will help keep outdoor sports alive, not to mention that the outdoors can change a child forever. I have seen some not so good kids change to the right direction after being introduced to the wild. And the good kids seem to be better focused on life and other tasks after they get into the outdoors.

Good Luck to both of you!

Let me know if your son is a " SPECIAL" hunter,I can give you some helpfull web sites for the disabled...;)

ohioduckhunter and pajack yes Eric is " Special" he was born with cerebral palsy and epilepse he is prone to life threatning seizures but he has been under control with meds for about 6 mos. now finally. He has very limited use of his left hand and arm he also has a short leg so walking long distance over uneven ground is very difficult for him . so I need to get him a crossbow and somthing to help him hold it. we are going to go on a handicapped hunt at the end of Oct. in southern ILL. I have been in contact with the ILL. DNR and the paper work for his crossbow permit is in the mail. So pajack the web sites you mentioned may help alot. I' m looking forward to him being able to go hunting with me FINALLY.

Congratulations! And also, good luck on the hunt! I am sure you will both equally enjoy the experience. It is great to hear you are able to share this with your son! God Bless you Both.

It will be a blessing because he gets left out of alot of the other hunting I domostly pheasants behind my GSP' S it' s the walking that gives him trouble I have a couple of spots that are fairly level and not to long a walk even at that he has trouble keeping up so I' m excited for him to be able to go just me and him
