RE: Fatal hunting accident
We had a hunter shot and killed a few years ago but it was the guy that got shot who was the idiot. He had a full body cape, head and antlers of an elk and he hung it up in some trees to make it look like an elk was standing there. He crawled underneath the cape and started to bugle. So a hunter came along and shot at the cape and the shot killed the guy immediately.

ORIGINAL: NY Bowhunter go figure........... just one of those "grey area" laws I suppose. What a shame........ human life for a game animal? Not a chance I'd be taking. |
RE: Fatal hunting accident
Fellas, fellas, fellas, it is legal to hunt a variety of animals at night. It is a different type of hunting that requires caution just like other types. And accidents do happen. Please don't start jumping on the anti-night (legal) hunting bandwagon just because your are not familiar with it.I don't have the facts and figures, but I am willing to bet that there are as many or more daylight hunting accidents, in terms of both numbers and percentages, than nightime ones.

RE: Fatal hunting accident
Yes, the loss of life, and the need to exercise caution, are the issues. But, it looked like things were starting to get a little sidetracked in some of the posts.

RE: Fatal hunting accident
I agree w/Lanse. Let's not jump on the "anti-night" hunting bandwagon..we already have enough people against hunters in general...I too am willing to bet that there are as many, if not MORE hunting accidents during the day than at night..

RE: Fatal hunting accident
NY,
So, are you nowsuggestingthat daytime hunting is so much more widespread and dangerous (from a gross numbers perspective) that it should be banned for safety reasons:eek: Seriously, I think that if you researched the statistics, you would find that the percentage (not gross number of incidents) of accidental deaths from legal nightiime hunting is likely the same or even more likely, lower than daytime incidents. |
RE: Fatal hunting accident
Very sad..I agree hunting at night should be illegal...but we all also need to know what we are shooting at.
