Way to go! Did you hunt from a ground blind or have you rigged a way to get into an elevated platform?

70 yrds or so...bedded once and there she laid dead...got tip of lung...lower shot and there is no lung there...lucky!!!

and modified groundblind (so whole side opens for wheelchair access)

after groundblind huntintg...I wouldn't go to treestand if I could....on ground and at eye level with them....much more exciting!

Nice doe! (And that's a pretty tight wheelchair you got there.)
