You're right in a way--it always sucks when something like that happens. 2 yrs ago in NJ, we did a small drive for my Dad late in the shotgun season. We discussed doing the drive before we headed to our stands and agreed that 9am was the time. Well, at 9am we started walking slowly towards my Dad's stand only to push a nice rack and some does right at him. We stopped pushing and waited for the shot--NO SHOT!! We headed over and he left his stand to go back to the truck b/c he was COLD. We were a little pissed and totally told him what had happened. Now that we have teh radios. we always keep in touch.
