I dunno about the first shot, but the second shot that kid made just HAMMERED that bull!!
Thta's just cool!
I remember a story about TJ hunting with a guy that hunts a lot, and he is a
paraplegic, he uses a mouth activated trigger.
The guy is a danged good shot as well.

people that have disabilities such as MS, MD,etc, are faced with tremendous challenges every day, and when a person sees what they can accomplish and the amount of time involved with the people that help them do it, it's nothing short of outstanding !!

As a parent with a special needs child, this group rocks! Love what they have done for this young man and his family. Got the tissues any now, and wonder if we can do something like that here? Sure would be good for the soul and kids.

Default inspiring video

Fantastic video! Really, truly inspiring!! Talk about a good way to give a positive view of the whole hunting fraternaty.
Good timing. My wife was in the shower, so she didn't get to watch me dig out the kleenex. Just when I thought it was gonna mellow out, it pulled the heart-strings some more.
