drache, yes, I guess you're right. After what happened to me, it's kind of heard to think logically. I'm definately thankful I'm here to tell about it. The only reason I am here is because the shotgun slug traveled 180 yds before hitting me. It went up over a hill and down to me. I was unlucky to be in the wrong spot at the wrong time. If it were closer, either I wouldn't be here or I wouldn't have a shoulder left. It missed my spine by a quarter of an inch. Right now, I doubt I'll hunt anymore but I like coming to this site and seeing comments and questions from others like yourself. Keeps me busy.

Thanks,
Vinny
