308Nut Report post Posted June 3, 2010 If you would have asked me a year ago if I would ever believe I would know anybody that would be killed in a hunting accident in my lifetime I would have said doubtfull. Now I have had two friends killed in hunting accidents in less than one year. Bret was an EXTREEMLEY experienced and savy guide, hunter and outdoorsman. If it can happen to him, it could happen to anybody. PLEASE be carefull out there. http://www.adn.com/2010/05/31/1302113/wasi...uring-bear.html M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azslim Report post Posted June 3, 2010 Any details on what happened? Was he going to the stand to pick up the hunter and the hunter fired at movement, hunter had a round in the chamber and touched it off, etc. The reason I ask is I use stories like this as examples when I am teaching Hunter Ed classes, they make an impression with the kids.
