Hope you have a swift recovery! I wouldn't say your season is over though I have a friend who broke his leg one year so he just hunted from a groundblind.

Give it a few days to start feeling better and try a ground blind. I had to do the same thing when I was younger. On the other hand if you can make it to the woods that shelf in the bathroom will be a piece of cake. Good luck on speedy recovery

Dang George, Hope you recover quick and are able to work. Yeah like Charlie says, better go with the camo cast. Shoot set you up a blind that you can crutch to. Were there's a will there's a way brother.

Thanks Guys, Charlie that "stalking cast" is a great idea KyTJ, I already asked Rosetta(my wife) if she would mind hitting it with some flat spray paint

mongoose, I've been having my worst season in a long...long time, then I read this. I have nothing to complain about now. At least I can still get a couple more days of hunting in. The season will end early for me this year due to some scheduled surgery the end of December.
Keep your sense of humor and get well soon!

Hey, atleast it wasn't your arm. Let the pain go away and then set up a ground blind close to home. Hoble out there, sit down on a bucket and shoot the plump doe. Just line up help to drag it out and watch out for that last step, its a doosie. Good luck

I am sure you can hunt with a broken leg. I hunted a day after having knee surgery. Doctor wasn't happy but I was!! I had to use cruthes to get into and out of woods, but I managed! Shawn
