I'm the guy that hunts turkeys with the .40 caliber flintlock. Photos of a couple of my birds and the rifle I've posted here before.
This is the third season I will have missed. And 2 and a little more deer seasons.
I had a stenosis in my lower spine I tried to ignore. That was a mistake as I waited a little longer than most and my legs started having spells of paralysis. Surgery was my only option and it was a rough operation. The surgeon had to remove the bone from the top of my spine and massage the nerves and tendons and such to get them to lay back in proper position.
I spent 2 months in physical rehab learning to walk with a walker but my balance is still off and the leg strength is slow in returning.
But I'm confident I will be in the deer woods next fall and the turkey woods after that.
So I'm wishing all of you the best of luck this year and may you find plenty of birds to call to.
