Mule deer hunt for child with life-threatening disease

[bigbuckman2]

Colorado offers hunting licenses to youth ages 12-21 with "a terminal illness or life-threatening disease or injury". A conservation group I work with knows of a youth that qualifies. We have been in contact with the Division of Wildlife and they explained to us that the license issued must be for use on private proprty. We would like to make this hunt happen. Does anyone know a private property owner that would be willing to allow a 14 year old to hunt mule deer on their land? We are looking for a rut hunt for a good buck with the potential for a great buck. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

If you would like to hunt Colorado there is an organization called Hunt of a Lifetime. A friend of mine has done two of these hunts the last two years. The tag was issued to the youth and was good on public land and we hunted after all the other deer seasons had ended, in December. Send me a private message with your phone number and I can help you with this if you would like. Its a great program for these kids.

Thanks, Skeet

I posted a link over at another Colorado site to see if anyone can help out.

Wish I had the private land access. Have you touched base with any of the Ranching for Wildlife ranches to see if they could assist?

Steve,

I forwarded an email from Aaron at Wilderness Adventures Inc. He thinks he can help you out. Let us know how it goes. Share some video and pics and maybe it can happen more often.
