    I can count on two hands the amount of times I’ve been hunting (small game and deer), so I’m no hunting authority. Nevertheless, fudd versus non-fudd banter in this thread is interesting, (i.e., can’t we all just get along?).

    My take is that accidents do happen, certainly when PA woods are full of deer hunters. The accidents are always the result of negligence... tragic nevertheless. This incident is no different.

    I heard a noise.
    It could have been anything.
    I didn’t see what made the noise.
    But since I am hunting deer, I assumed it was a deer.
    If I were hunting squirrels, I would have assumed it was a squirrel.
    Noise is bad, m’kay?

    Another reason I stopped hunting. Too many idiots that shoot at any noise they hear.

    And they want to use semi-autos?
    I don't speak English , I talk American!

    Could have been a tree, falling in the forest. Better shoot it to be sure.
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Were you there? There's no evidence a deer was in the vicinity.
