Value of Hunters Education

Well... Even if it did happen across the river I thought I'd share this. I'm so astounded I dont know how to take it. Apparently IN has seen fit not to prosicute the guy who shot his baby in the head.

Yeesh...

Amazing. I had seen that story before, and I can't believe they are not prosecuting him.

Back in the 1980s when I had my hunter ed. course, it was a very good experience. I had already been hunting several years, but I still learned a lot. The teacher even made a mock blood trail for us to follow that went through several different terrains. I think it's a good reg. for Kentucky to have.

Even with the ed. courses, however, it's said to realize how many idiots are walking around with weapons in their hands. Some of the things people do are so stupid! I just don't understand anybody nocking an arrow and pulling back in their house!! I was just reading an article earlier this morning about a man in Ohio killed by another bowhunter. The shooter heard the guy walking thru the woods before light and slung an arrow in that direction severing the femoral artery causing him to bleed to death before he could be cared for.

I could not have said it better Rak!.....a bow is a CLOSE weapon. Regardless of your weapon of choice IDENTIFY your target!! As well as make sure the back stop is safe!!

I wish that you could not get a hunting license without it.
