Hey Legionaire. How ya doin? I haven't seen anything yet either on this. I am VERY interested in the final tally also as you probably already know. Take care Bud! I'll let you know if I find any sources.

RE: Final 2001 NY accident statistics?
I do know of one guy who was in a tree stand and got shot during SZ season (non-fatal). I also know of a guy, near me, who fell out of a tree stand the last day of SZ muzzleloader season, and broke his neck, killing him. Other than that . . . I heard of a guy, also during SZ shotgun season, who had someone close to him, so he waved his arms and whistled at the guy--and got shot, the shooter saying that he thought that his target was a deer (also non-fatal). A guy in my camp knows a guy who shot himself in the thigh, with his .30-06, as he climbed out of a tree stand (again, non-fatal). That musta hurt!
