Crossbows ?
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how i go about applying for help in getting a donated crossbow? I'm a disabled veteran who loves to bow hunt but no longer able to. Being on a set income there is just no way i can afford one. I hear BADF has a program for helping disabled hunters obtain crossbows but i can't seem to find any more about it. I'm not able to hunt in the cold weather and a crossbow would allow me to hunt the early season. I would greatly appriciate any help you could give me...SEE Ya In The Woods !!

Washington state does not allow crossbows. They don't allow much. Only dog hunting you can do is with birds, no coon, bear, cougar hunting, etc. even though we are now having bear and cougar problems. They don't do much with HC either. There is only a special elk hunt that has a huge amount of applications, all others must use regular season. No hunters can help you, no skinning, gutting, carrying, etc. unless they have a permit to help you. Go figure.

RE: Crossbows ?
I received a email from buckmasters a few weeks back about the crossbow distrubution but unfortuniately i deleted the email because i was going to forward it to u. drop a line to david sullivan at [email protected] at he will send u the email if the drawing isnt already up. 2yrs ago i entered in the drawing and won a horton supermag that i use to hunt with. i have been on 2 disabled hunts with buckmasters they are a GREAT orginaziation and do everything they can to help disabled hunters. Best of luck in getting a crossbow they are a blast to shoot and a real deer killer!
