Choose you hunting partner carefully.  This guy's buddy likes to shoot at sounds in the bush.









Be careful out there,

Me too. That's just terrible. Thank goodness he was using a three blade, a two balde and he'd have killed his friend there >:(.

That is gruesome, and I have seen pictures of it before, quite some time ago, actually.

No doubt. There's one in every crowd that likes to see a leaf move or hear a rustle behind a bush and ain't smart enough to first identify what the hell it is before he pulls on it. That guy is also damned lucky his friend was hunting with bow instead of shotgun deer slug. At times I have considered that maybe I am too picky about who I hunt with. But I'm pretty sure I'm not.

That is unreal. :o  That fella didn't look too much like a deer to me.  Not to mention what the heck was he aiming for.  I would understand if the arrow was behind his shoulder blade.   ;D

 That's about 6 years old or older. The guy was shot by his buddy in Canada.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Nice shot,can't say much for pentration tho. ;) I have always heard never shoot for the head. ;) :)
 now I know why. :) Just kidding,that's bad and it is hard for me to believe anyone could mistake a man for a game  animal. He must have been hunting with a real dummy. :) I would find me a new hunting buddy. :)
