Default RE: have you ever been shot at?

About 6 years ago I went bowhunting on the opening day of pheasant season here in IA.Knowing its a busy day I wore an orange vest up in the tree.At a little after 8:00 that morning I see three guys and their dogs working a weedpatch coming towards me.I waved and they waved back, they got up within about 30/40 yards of me and a rooster jumped up.2 out of three of those a$$holes 2 opened up shooting directly up at me.I could hear the birdshot hitting the branches around me but they didnt hit me.After a screaming confrontation where they claimed they didnt know I was there{they waved at me about 90 seconds before that} I offered to mistake one of thier dogs for a deer if they didnt get out from under me.Didnt dawn on me till later they had tresspassed through about 1/2 mile of farmground to get to the public land where they shot at me from.
