Thread Name: BS: Guns and hunting
Subject: RE: Guns and hunting
Des......Wayne's son David took several hunter type courses and went out with Wayne on Wednesdays during bow season. He's at the age where he truly worships his Dad and they had a very good time.

But when gun season came in, Wayne didn't take him along until Wednesday of the second week, which was a bit quiter classically. They hunt in an area only used by them with special permission of the landowner but during gun season the woods here are overrun with the nuts who could care less where they are. Wayne was also attacked by a deer this year because gun season came in a bit differently time wise and this one was serious about getting him. He tried to back away, but on the second charge he was pinned so fired a "defensive shot" into the shoulder which turned the buck enough that he got a clean second shot and dropped it.

I dunno'......Like I said, I tend to agree with everyone. I'd have less of a problem if every hunter was like Wayne and not like the microwave killer.

LJ, the young man has a rough way to go.....I don't know that he'll ever get over it.
