Dewey Richardson of Black Death deer Urine has created a new Hope Outdoors that will start chapters in LA, MS and Ark. it is a non-profit organization to help handicapped or physically challenged youths and adults

We met tonight for 3 hours and I have accepted an appointment to the Board Of Directors.

We have numerous hunts donated free at Black Hawk Plantation in Louisiana, one of the premier big buck high fence operations in the south.

The youths being taken on these hunts will be physically or medically challenged, or terminally ill.

I have spoke with a judge today, he runs a 10,000 acre, managed club, south of Baton Rouge. He is getting it set up to take 3-4 handicapped kids hunting for HOPE this year.

I can think of no greater personal or spiritual reward than helping some of these kids and adults on an adventure hunting, fishing, or shooting skeet, that otherwise would never have the opportunity, or may not live for many more years.

This organization will be launched nationally in 2009 with hopes of having one or more chapters in every state.

I have pledged myself to this endeavor and would like for anyone who can participate in anyway to help make these outing happen, to contact me. It may be nothing more than volunteering to spend a weekend on the hunt helping these persons get to and from a stand, cook, play music, help to find hosts to offer hunts, or donating lodging and hunts at your club.

If we can get members in our region to help film some of these hunts, it would be a blessing.

Those who are far away, can try to find someone willing to sponsor or host a hunt for a few kids and set it up, and hopefully get support in their area and start a chapter there later down the road.

Jimmy (DOODAA)and I have made a mutual decision to use some hunts already filmed, in the MOTV.com tv shows he is putting together for Team Hammerdog, and provide advertising in each show for this organization.

It is a Christian based foundation and offers non-denominational ministry of GOD and what he is capable of doing, by HIM helping to make these hunts possible and the christian love of all the volunteers who donate their time and effort.

Our sponsor list is growing daily.

The website is being built but here is a link and read the story..........
