Default RE: PA Hunter dies in fall

I tend to agree with Quick on this one. I live in a state that has a motorcycle helmet law. My dad has been riding Harley's for 30 years. His helmet has literally saved his life 4 times now. My whole life I heard him complain about the helmet law. The only reason he wore a helmet was because of the law! And I'm glad we had a helmet law, because I would have grown up without a dad otherwise.

This last spring he almost died whena car pulled out in front of him at 65 mph. Once again, the helmet saved his life (his leg is another story). After years of hating the helmet law, he finally admits that the law is a good thing. It took 4 near fatal crashes to convince him, though.

By the way, he's never worn a safety harness while bowhunting either - until we went to Illinois and the host MADE him wear one or go home.
