RE: Hunting Injuries
Well maybe I have just had bad luck, or maybe I have just spent a lot of time in the woods. But I had a form of a Heart Attack last fall that required being lifeflighted. I have been in two car accidents on my way too or from hunting. Fourteen years ago I cracked my knee cap, then proceeded to killabull elk later that day4 miles from the trail head. Mydad was pissed because I couldn't walk let alone hike or help pack any of my elk out the next day. lol I have had to have stiches the night before the opening of bow season because I cut my self with a broadhead.And last of all I had a bungie strap break on my fourwheeler and come back and smack in right in the head. I should of had stiches but I didn't want toleave to recieve medical help.Some super glue (Goat Tuf, stung like hell for the first 5 minutes) and a band aid ended up dong a good job. lol I could keep going but I think I will end there becasue I covered all the major stuff. I haven't been hurt by my horses yet, but that is my biggest worry on a back country hunt. I hope it never happens, and I am very alert, cautious and carefull around them, but I know that accidents happens, so that is why its my biggest worry if I were to think about it.
