That's 2 kids that I have heard about this year. How does the uncle not know where the boy is?40 yds.!
When I turkey hunt I use a DSD decoy

Sickning. Never should happen. Simply put, there is just no excuse. Period.

That chaps my butt!  I was talking to the game warden opening day and there was a report that came across his scanner that said a guy was shot in Giles County.  I told him they should lock that guy up!  I dont have a beard, i dont gobble, I dont have a red, white, and blue head and I'm not 3 feet tall and colored like a turkey!

We had a guy shot here a couple weeks ago. 50+ pellets from the chest up. He going to be O.K. and his eyes were saved by his glasses. Sad part is, he was shot by a guy that has taught firearms safety in the past.

No excuse! Praying for the boy.

  this ongoing problem stems from the fact that there is a lot of people who just want to shoot,and a lot of people who want to kill something... this is not the mind set of a true hunter.....this statement can be easily verified  by just going and reading the post made by some people on all hunting forums... :'(

A couple of years back in our neck of the woods we had a guy that shot and killed his son.  Losing a child is always a tragedy  Of course, everyone felt horrible for the father too.  That is until they learned that he was trespassing, drunk, and high!
