wow. thats all i can say is wow. i couldnt imagine how bad id feel after that. i couldnt live with myself. but that accident does bring hunting ethics to the table, for all hunters, not just turkey hunters. "always be 100% sure what your target is" has always been a top rule of mine and the people i hunt with. if it looks like a turkey moving through the bush but you dont see a head or body dont shoot. if your deer hunting and see a dark figure moving through the woods at dusk and cant tell its a deer, dont shoot. i was hunting with my best friend last deer season. he left the stand early anddid a grunt call along a side path at dusk by the area i was hunting to mess with me. i knew i could shoot exactly where the grunt came from but didnt want to risk anything. he called me to tell me not to shoot because he knew id be ready but not takin a shot without verification what i was shootin at
