Title: Yetihunter hunting accident
Post by: Frogman on January 07, 2009, 11:36:57 PM
I'm sure you guys are aware of the accidental shooting of one of the PM active members a few weeks ago.  It is a tragedy that we can all learn from.  Fortunately yetihunter survived the accidental shooting, but he may loose his left eye.  This is a podcast of an interview with him after the accident.

I don't know yetihunter but he is a brother coyote hunter and my prayers go out to him.  We all need to give this a lot of thought and be especially careful. 

Al and I have been taking a set of family channel walkie talkies with us on some of our stands.  They are really helpful when we set up a ways apart from each other.  If one of us decides to change locations we can let the other guy know!  We can also let the other person know when we are ready to end the stand.  Another way wv_yoter and I communicated was with our mouth calls.  When one of us was ready to end a stand we would blow a call twice.  If there was no response from the buddy then we would pack up and get back together.  If the other person had a dog coming in or wasn't quite ready to end the stand he could respond with one blow on a call. 

I have really come to enjoy predator hunting and all the fine people I have met on the forums.  I want it to continue to be fun and enjoyable for us all.  Let's all be careful out there!!
