Thread: hunter down :(

I think we might be going around in circles a bit here, It seems we're all aware of the fact that we might encounter and intitially mis-identify other hunters in the bush but where we're getting mixed up is what happens at this stage.

I agree with Spook in that if you think there is a chance of you going out and shooting someone, bury your guns in a fuckin deep hole and seek psychiatric help.

But then I also see Nibblets point that we can all mis-identify what we have encountered, for instance I've seen deer and thought they were people. So if your aware of this and keep it in your mind you are more likely to take the time to clearly identify.

Id like to say it would never happen to me, for one I'm not and over-excitable chap and never really experienced full on buck fever, not even face to face with a good stag at 10m, and secondly I hunt were there are large amounts of wallabies that I often mistakenly stalk in on. I just dont see the point of letting a round off if for one you dont know what your shooting at and secondly you dont know where your going to hit it, its just a really fuckin stupid thing to do on so many levels.
