Default RE: Drive hunters

Here goes... I bow hunt and usually have all my deer killed before gun season, but I drive deer here in Ohio w/ 10-13 people. We are precautious as to not have any accidents but as you know you are hunting and there is a chance that you could get shot but you could also fall out of your tree climbing up bowhunting. so there is a risk either way. As to the fact of the guys slinging lead at 200 yds. Our gruoup rarely shoots over 80 yds at a deer and they are usually standing or jogging. This year we killed 10 deer this year in 2 days 6 were at less than 30 yds. standing. 2 were at about 60-65 yds and the lat one was at about 45 full bore running but he put the shot right in the oven. So it is the same as anything else. you have some guys that just go out and shoot anything w/ bow and gun they just wound deer after deer and then you have your ethical hunters. It is just something we have to deal w/ as ethical hunters. to say driving is not fair chase is ridiculous because people can rarely get a big buck to go where they want. just my input.
