Cast's/leg/arm

Anyone ever hunt while being in a cast?How would you or did you keep from getting the cast wet?

I had a broken wrist in a cast during the late shot gun season. It didn’t rain but I had one of those shower bags they sell for washing in my backpack. Those long gutting gloves would work as well.

Flex seal too. If it can seal that boat the guy cuts in half and then rides around in it, it has to work on a cast.

They sell rubber coverings that allow you to shower without getting casts wet! I used them when I had my foot and ankle surgery.

When I was 16 I had a full length leg cast. Didn't stop me from hunting. I was tape a garage bag around the cast. Mom wasn't pleased with me, but she sure wasn't stopping me.

I’d go the removable route... bag or plastic wrap.

I hunt with a myoelectric prosthetic.  I typically just wear long sleeves.  If its raining hard, or if you yourself can't get a thick long sleeve over the casted arm, I would saran wrap the arm in a bunch of layers.  You can lean forward a bit also to use your upper body to roof over the affected arm.

I like the garbage bag idea too, some are vanilla scented, could double as a deer/bear attractant.

I had a bad one..with orders no weight or lose foot.. cast all of foot to knee and new steel plate and screws in leg and ankle..cried until Mr B wrapped me up in a 55 gal. Garbage bag with duct tape grabbed some pillows and drove me to a  brush turkey blind. I  crawled in with his help and he set me up with the pillows for elevation and a cell phone and water and gun..kissed me and said when you can't  handle it anymore call me..still in  walking cast in fall he bought me my first climber and I bow and gun hunted with a full leg walking cast...

I used one of these for showering when I had a toe to knee cast on leg for a broken ankle. I tried the garbage bag and duct tape but it still let water in. This worked great, not a drop of water.

A few years back, a friend of mine arrowed his best buck ever from a wheelchair with a broken leg. Covered up with a camo blanket, wheeled out back to the woods, backed into some brush. After he shot him he laid on to the ground and gutted then crawled back to house. Called stepson to get him in house and recover deer a couple hours later. He was in his late 60's at the time.
