This is why you wear orange when hunting around one another!
ReplyDeleteanother brush moving. didnt actually see a deer at all but lets shoot and hope for the best
ReplyDeleteDetails say he must have been hunting Flying Reindeer, his friends was in a tree!
ReplyDeleteorange is not required for bow hunting
ReplyDeletebow hunting is an up close sport. there is no way this could have happened, unless he was shooting at a sound in the bushes
Did he check him in?
ReplyDeleteI imagine that he was either drinking, or maybe he is involved with his friends' wife, and this was the way to end the triangle.

ReplyDeleteNo! But he almost gutted him.
Real hunters don't shoot other hunters with arrows or other hunters out of trees. This should be investigated as a murder. As hunting accident is a good alibi for murder. Especially if it is his ex-brother-in-law or something.
ReplyDeleteI sure do wish Obama would go hunting with Dick Chaney!
ReplyDeleteHunting accident? BS this was murder pure and simple.
ReplyDeleteWas he wearing a deer decoy suit with antlers and all?!
ReplyDeleteI remember a certain Vice President who shot his hunting friend. Wasn't he wearing orange too?
