Some of these gun hunters are just pricks! Where do they get off shooting someones deer thats been shot with a bow?

Absolutely would be IMO Ron. Although the gun took him down he was a dead deer to begin with with a lung shot. I am not just saying that becuase you are on my team either.

Did he field dress it there and you seen where you hit it? I can't imagine that anyone could do that to another hunter. Makes me sick to my stomache.

My question would be what would the Game wardens say about your deer having a gun hole in it. That is a pretty tricky situation.

He had no idea it was shot, I assume.

But....for the sake of argument......let's say you just stuck him with another arrow, after your conversation with the other guy. Now....you have last shot on the deer.

What some of you guys have to put up with and WILL put up with is beyond me.I just wouldn't hunt in those conditions.

I now have to agree with you Jeff! I am thinking about giving up rifle hunting altogether. I was only doing it to hunt with my father anyway. He got disgusted after hunting this year and not seeing but only four deer in three days and quit.

Why? It's open gun season.

Jeff! Not everyone has access to private or leased land. You go with what you got and hope for the best! I'm lucky i own land, but if i didn't i'd be out hunting state land also putting up with this BS!

Schultzy......don't take it the wrong way......I was simply making an observation. I hate some of you have to put up with this. That's all I was saying. I wouldn't hunt in those conditions.

all too common in PA...

i also believe the law says finishing shot is the killer...

sorry to hear about that...id be fuming...but, what can you do...

i had an old timer squeezing the trigger on a doe i shot...blew the heart right outta her no joke..did her death run 30-40yds..falling, running into trees the whole way etc...then got up stood there and dropped back down...i go over and start guttin and grandpa comes over..says "i had her in my scope and was squeezing the trigger and she dropped! lucky i didnt shoot her" i just said "yep" i wouldnt have been fightin old granpa, but i would tried taking what was mine with logic and reason...blood trail was so thick it got my boots bloody i remember that...and she didnt leave my sight the whole time...blood pouring out of her...but grandpa must not have seen that through his scope....:eek:

I didn't take it the wrong way by no means! I totally understand what your saying.;)You can honestly tell me that if you didn't have your own land to hunt you wouldn't hunt at all on state land? As much as I hate hunting state land, I'd have to I guess. I love bow hunting to much!

RE: A little ticked off after the season.......
 
That's totally different, Schultzy. Sure I'd hunt.....but not bowhunt during the gun season (If I had to put up with such). It would likely take all the fun out of it, for ME.

Who knows?
