My father is in a wheel chair and he does less damage than you and your horses or 4 wheelers that you use. So I guess that what you are saying is that if you were put in a chair that you wouldn't hunt anymore. My A** you wouldn't. They aren't stopped just slowed down.

As an environmentalist, I have to agree with tundraboy.  Enough damage is being done to the environment as it is.<br>Secondly, the center of gravity is way too high.  You'd practically need a Hoyer lift to get into the darn thing.

I need an attendant operated version as my wife has both motor and cognitive impairments (runs into... well... everything).  2-up four wheelers are banned in most places except National Forests and BLM land and the tankchair appears to also be a terror to both the environment and any others on a trail.  Just how high off the deck is the CG of this puppy?  With all the critical comments someone out there must know...???
