After living on VI my whole life and having some unreal times over the years there hunting black tail, I moved to Princeton at the beginning of this season. I don't get to go out very often anymore because I had an accident that left me in a wheelchair six years ago but my buddies did manage to get me out of couple of times just to drive around for a looksee. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures but we did end up getting a 4 x 3 white tail around remembrance Day. I got lucky two years ago and got a four-wheel-drive wheelchair so I leave from the house every day and go as far as my batteries will take me just to look around. While I seen a dreamer yesterday! I didn't get a chance to count the points but he was big and untypical. Still gets my heart jumping! I'm hoping to find somewhere next year where I can just sit and maybe shoot from my chair, but as you know it takes a good friend to do all of the work once the hair has hit the ground! Because I don't know anybody in the area I am restricted to when buddies come this way for a couple of days to do their hunt. If everything goes well for them early on they try and make time to get me out for a day to just drive around. I wish they had a site like this, or I wish I knew of a site like this when I was doing all of my black tail hunting on the island. I've got lots of pictures but they are the old-fashioned kind on film. Anyway I really enjoy hearing everybody's hunting stories, it's how I get my fix nowadays! So keep up the good work:-D

Wow! What an incredible offer. I've just started to shoot again, with a .22 and I hope I will be able to shoot my .270 by fall, however, until I can do it 100% safely I obviously wouldn't do it. But I really enjoy going out even as an extra set of eyes, they still work really well! I will definitely keep in touch though and we'll see what happens next fall. How was this season for you? I can't believe I would get such an offer from a stranger, absolutely awesome! Thank you very much.:-D

we did awesome this year i got two mulies (a early season four point in princeton ) and a leh doe in goldbridge. then i took my step brother and his friend back to princeton on rememberence day and got two more mulies a 4 x3 and another 4x4 .so im sure we can work something out even if you cant shoot a day out in the woods is better than a day at home.
so give me a shout next season and we will set something up.

Sparkes3, great to hear of your success on muleys, and maybe you made a mistake in writing, but are you aware that muleys close on November 10th, a day before Rememberance Day in Princeton?
