Post Lost a friend today
I got a call nobody wants to receive this am. My club was setting up for a drive when 1 of our members got on the radio asking for help. He had accidentally shot a killed Billy Husky. The gentleman were walking to their stands and the first hunter prepared to getting in his stand. Some how his gun went off hitting Billy in the neck. He was gone before he hit the ground. Please, remember gun safety. Terrible day.

Dang.. sorry man .. you always think you are safe, but you can never be too safe. It could happen to any of us if we don't take the time to take extra care.

tragic. Gun safety can never be forgotten or taken for granted. Terrible for all concerned.in this case.

What a terrible thing to happen. Muzzle discipline must be adhered to at all times.
