Ben McDonald fell 25ft out of deer stand. Concussion and two cracked vertebrae.

Ground blinds from now on

That's scary stuff. Hope he makes a full recovery.

Geez. He doesn't remember jack

Concussion and 2 cracked vertebrae. He’s lucky he fell just right. Get well soon!

Why was he in a deer stand in July?

because most hardcore deer hunters especially bow hunters put stands up in July and August getting ready for October to avoid messing with deer.

Yes, Ben is pushing 60. Let someone else do that shite. It’s a good way to paralyze yourself.

He doesnt remember falling? Probably wasted

congrats on having less understanding of concussions than a toddler

Well, on the positive side, he just added another epic story to tell during games. Just glad he is ok. Love listening to him when he calls games.

Either setting one up or more likely hog hunting

I wonder who is Dr is and if he’s gonna have to have surgery or let it heal on its own. I did the same from 16’ and broke my back 3 years ago. Under the guidance of a Dr Bowie at OLOL, I let it heal without surgery. I have no issues at all today and still climb to bow hunt and play golf. I was definitely one of the lucky ones!
