    A good friend/co worker had his brain tumor come back. This is going to be his third surgery. This time is probably going to be his last chance.

    Our company and I would like to take him to a game farm to shoot some birds. If anyone can help point me in the right place I sure would be thankful.

    Travis is only 20. I hired him on the spot. He is a great worker. I just feel terrible. Not sure what esle to do.

    Hank I can not offer any hunting advice to you but it sounds like you are already helping the young man by being a friend and taking the time to care. I do send out prayers to the young man and his family I have an idea of what they are going through. I lost my cousin (my Godmothers son)in Feb this year after 7 year battle with Brain cancer. He was an amazing young man also, he left behind a wife and two little girls and an empty place in our hearts. I truly hope the Doctors can help help your friend.

    Game Unlimited is your closest.

    Horse and Hunt will probably donate a bunch of birds also. Talk to Terry Correll and say “Stu” sent you.

    Sorry for the situation.

    No help for game farm, but as far as what you can do, keep a very positive attitude.

    Having spent some time in the oncology ward, attitude can make the difference between life and death, I really believe that.

    Best of luck to him.

    I don’t hunt any of the game farms below the Hwy 210 line in MN. They all over charge and rip you off by charging for scratch birds.

    If you were wanting to make a weekend event of it. Take him up to Federal Dam and hunt Bader’s Pheasant Run. Deb and Wade Huotari are excellent people. For a small fee Deb will even make a meal for all the guys hunting. So you not only come in from hunting to warm up or call it a day. There is an excellent home cooked meal ready for you.

    Prices are reasonable and they DO NOT charge for scratch birds.
