Congrats Nog. No more jumping through the yearly hoops.
The lifetime permits were mentioned last year on here. You’re the first I’ve seen that got one though.

I tried to get mine 2 years ago. I filled out all the paperwork and got a note from my GP and a Physiotherapist. I was denied. Apparently limited range of motion from breaking a collar bone 3 times and two busted up shoulders all from a couple motorcycle accidents wasn’t enough. What I find funny is F&W would rather I try to use a bow despite not being able to do so than just issue the permit in accordance with the rules they set out. The risk to wounding an animal is just too high for me to do so. So, unfortunately no bow season for me.
