Hands-free, easy to use grunt call.


One of the most useful and easy-to-use products I have found that works is this grunt call. It is totally hands-free once it is hooked up. It is not only for disabled hunters but able-bodied hunters would also find it useful. I have it mounted on both of my crossbows so that the tube is within reach of my mouth. Another good thing about it is does not freeze. I have hunted in 0°F temperatures with no problems of it freezing up. I have had it hooked up to my clothing, which worked. But I really like it hooked up to my weapon of choice. It is designed to attach to your sleeve and the tube is long enough that it will reach your mouth. It attaches using a safety pin thingamajig. It is easily attached and unattached. There are four different sounds you can use fawn, doe, buck and dominant buck. The tube also has a flexible extender if you need to make a call louder. I have called in numerous deer with his call through the years. I highly recommend it.

Pictures of rifle mount.


Here's a picture of the mount attached to my wheelchair. It is not attached like it is supposed to be because my electric wheelchair would not allow it. Had to do some modifications. Every wheelchair is different, so you will have to find what works for you. This rifle is my Remington .243 Model 7400.


This is another picture close-up. This is before I had the trigger that I use now. This was first time shooting rifle after my accident and first time using this rifle mount. This is just an old .22.

Neat video of coyotes on a dead cow that my buddy took.

You need to have an account on YouTube to watch this video. Evidently some people get put off by watching nature in action. Good grief.

My electric fishing reel, rod and mount.


My electric reel was purchased years ago. I am pretty sure my uncle picked it up somewhere in Minnesota. They do not make this particular reel anymore. The name of it is John's Reel II. The closest electric fishing rigs that I have found are on the website below. My rod holder is homemade. It attaches to my chair and also has the button/switch attached to it, so I can reel in.


My first crossbow, a Barnett Wildcat.


The butt stock, trigger guard and the forearm have been taken off the crossbow to make it lighter. The trigger has been elongated. Just stuffed an old aluminum arrow onto the trigger. Put some plastic inside the arrow shaft and heated it on to the trigger. Also made a handle on where the butt stock went. In the picture right below my chin. This is how I aim up and down, left and right. The crossbow is mounted on a window scope mount. The scope mount is mounted onto a homemade frame that is attached to my wheelchair. The tube that you see is a hands-free grunt tube.

My new crossbow, a Carbon Express Intercept.

This is the crossbow I purchased in 2013. I chose this crossbow after a year of researching hundreds of crossbows. I chose this one because it is the most adaptable. It was modeled after an AR. Everything is removable and can be upgraded. I took off the butt stock, the forearm grip and the pistol grip. There was also a quiver that was taken off. This crossbow is a slick shooting machine. The scope that came with it is also top-notch. It shoots around 365 ft./s. Last summer I was shooting at 75 yards very easily. I believe there were four more crosshairs below in the reticle at the one I was shooting with at 75 yards. I think I can shoot to 100 yards easily. Only at 3-D targets or paper though. I am also impressed with the Maxima Blue Streak arrows by Carbon Express. Below is a link for further information.
