Dan shared an awesome story with us about his love of hunting, before and after his car accident which left him paralyzed. "I was injured in a car accident in Feb. of 1991. As a result I broke my neck, leaving me paralyzed as a C 4/5 quadriplegic (paralyzed from the upper chest down). However, I've overcome a great deal with wonderful support from my family and friends along with the strive to survive. I write to you as an avid hunter before and after my accident. About seven years ago, I designed a bit trigger device and chair mount for my Remington 270 semiautomatic rifle. After many times at the rifle range I dialed in my devices and took it on my family hunting trip. The very first year I took a 2 point mule deer at an amazing 435 yards. I sat in my pop up blind in a farmers field and cried with my family. As any true hunter knows the harvesting of a deer is a gift, and a gift it was."
