I tend to believe that. They more often than not are not accidents. Merely convenient excuses.
I'd like to see that data. I have a hard time beleiving that all these hunters in the woods are mearly searching for an alibi rather then game. I imagine it might happen sometimes but 90% is a high number. I'd hate to give the impression of hunters in these situations as people just looking for an excuse to commit a crime.
