My young hunting buddy, who I started upon the road to handloading told me something last evening. He lives 30 miles NW of me near the mouth of the Chagrin River. The area is over run with deer, and with restrictions , many urban tags are given out. He has built a raised walk way to the middle of his property, a gazebo at the end. With a cousin wheelchair bound, the walkway wheel chair friendly, to code per. The Chief of Police knows him and of the walk way and gazebo, and the deer. The Chief called him last week, told him of a 14 yr old Penn boy that has a disease that is now terminal, he likely won't see 15. A dream of the boy, to hunt, bag a deer. Complications have made it difficult to pave the way to make things come together, to home in Penn.. The Chief asked my friend if he and the Mayor waived some rules, a cross bow minimum skill test to pass, could his family bring him to his house to hunt ? Chief was told, hell yeah ! Get him here fast ! Archery season starts Saturday am.. Friend and his young son will hunt elsewhere until the boy gets his chance, his deer. COR has met my young friend. Please, prayer, well wishes, to a successful hunt. I'll let you know how it goes. Early this coming week is earliest chance. He is past the point of using a tree stand, or using the typical firearm, so my friends set-up and a crossbow rested... Amongst deer seen on a trail cam, a nice buck ! I am praying for a clean , lethal hit, kill. I do not think anything material is needed, am not asking for anything, not close enough to put myself in that spot. I am praying for a joyful text message and some pics mid morning Monday. Fingers crossed..

In all things consider others more important than yourself. I for one hope it works and will do as asked.

Many years ago,, I thought the "Make-A-Wish" foundation was a great idea. Then, they refused to honor the wishes of kids who wanted a hunt. I stopped supporting them for failing to accept all wishes (that were legal.)
To hear of a young boy,, with dreams of hunting a deer,, and all that's required for my help is to offer a prayer,, then it's with bended knees & a heartfelt prayer for that young man to fulfill his dream.
