Joseph Neely's Project


My project was to build a deer stand for handicapped hunters. Mr. Ernie Lentz, a ranger with the Corps of Engineers at Arkabutla Lake, requested this project of me. The stand is large enough to drive a 4-wheeler into. It has a 24-inch high shooting window on all 4 sides and pitched roof to help protect the hunter from the elements. It was completed on December 2nd, 2000 and was used the following week during the annual handicapped hunt at Arkabutla.
