Interesting.
All the hunters I know feel the contrary. Shouldn't have happened. Simple
failure of firing discipline.

Most of 'ems elk, bear, deer and antelope killers tho'.
Maybe bird guys are differnt.


It was a mistake on the VP's part but yes bird hunting is much different
than hunting for larger mammals. The main thing is that you are seldom
ever doing to be swinging and firing at the same time when shooting at
deer not to mention there is usually no another hunter changing position
behind and beside you when you are hunting deer, elk etc...

Both of those things happen all the time when bird hunting.
