Ya never know. I hunted a piece of land untill the owners son wanted to start bow hunting. They were telling me how good he was cause he could hit a round hay bail as they rolled it down there driveway. He had no idea what a draw length, weight, or arrow spine was but he can hit a rolling target so he's ready to hunt.

I hear ya' on that!
I don't worry about bowhunters, but I've had to lay low a few times during gun season!

I worry about anyone out in the woods. It baffles me how many accidents happen each year. This one has stuck with me since I first read it. http://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/...nting-accident

I've never know anyone to "shoot at movement" but they're out there. Certainly most hunters that "shoot at movement" probably won't admit it, but when you see a title like this, it didn't surprise me. I was just glad it was in good fun.

Ya, glad it was just a joke... Unfortunately there are people out there that do shoot at movement in the bushes.. Those people have no business hunting, AT ALL!!! I think its mostly first time hunters and out of towner's that just want to bag something.. I just don't know why they think that shooting at movement and not knowing what there shooting at is ever a good idea....... People that do that should have there hunting privileges taken away, PERMANENTLY!!!

They outlawed using Buckshot for deer(in NY) probably just for this reason. I agree guys, target identification(and beyond) should be top priority. Another thing that sickens me is finding piles of beer cans in the woods, left there by deer hunters!

This kills me. I still don't understand what about a drunk guy with a gun sounds acceptable to some people. The sad part is that I have relatives that do this. They wonder why I don't hunt with them.

I know of one guy who always hunts when he has been drinking, and shoots at moving cat tails when he is walking through them. I did hunt archer seasion until he told me that story. Said he burned a box of shells in 200 yards. He is deffinetly a nutt!
