Please guys, get off your ethical soapboxes, PLEASE. It was his first season, beginners make mistakes. True " ethics" are learned by trial and error. Most of us here made some bonehead moves when we first started bowhunting, hell I still do bonehead stuff sometimes and I' ve got 10+yrs of bowhunting. You live and learn. Good luck DeadlyRifle, you' ll get' em next season. One hint, you should practice with the same clothes you plan on hunting with, ie. face mask, gloves, etc. GOOD LUCK.
