It seems a lot of the time the victims of these incidents are family related. h.h.

Here's an idea...DON'T SPLIT UP! We ran 2 guys off our property last year; we couldn't see them and they were calling like crazy; we thought they were a hen. We'd snuck up on them in the woods and thought we'd just not spooked the hen. There were 2 gobblers headin right for us/them until they stood up and tried getting mad at us for being on OUR property; could've easily been a disaster had we shot at one of the toms while those guys were between us and the birds.

I"ve never been fond of spliting up Today I was video taping my nephew ( from last years swap gun double video) and we see a fan out on the edge of the field about 400 yards away. I zoom in and its a hunter, trespassing, with a fan in front of him shuffling through the field  ?? |

There are many hunting accidents that happen that NEVER make the news.
I would say there have been more than Two this Season.
A Turkey Hunters was shot in the leg last week, by his friend where in my county, and it never made the news.
Sadly, there are hundreds of hunting accidents each season in every state, that never get reported or that never make the news.

Idiots! This is exactly why I had to stop wearing my novelty turkey head hat into the Spring woods!  |

This should get a lifetime ban from hunting. There is no excuse. People like this give up their right to hunt by being a detriment to anyone else sharing the same woods.
