When the hunter becomes the hunted.

Whatcha think.....jerky or steaks?

A hunter has been killed after one of his companions shot him while mistaking him for a deer in Georgia, according to authorities.

A group of hunters were in a wooded area near Myers Hill Road in Glynn County, Georgia, on Saturday when the victim, Bobby Lane, was shot by his friend, Hector Romero, according to a release from the Glynnfoliage Police Department.

Maybe hunters will have to incorporate "Let me see your hands!!!" before shooting?

Ooops, my bad

Was he wearing an orange vest and hat like hunters are supposed to wear so this doesn't happen?

No, just a red ballcap!

In retrospect, wearing the fake antlers proved to be a big mistake.

I have never understood why people would shoot when you:
A. Cant tell it is even a deer
B. Cant see where you need to hit it for a kill shot

He did manage to hit it for a kill shot.

Shooter should've said he felt threatened & was simply standing his tree stand.

I almost shot my brother in law's brother one time. My brother in law and I went out, and I was sitting in the timber. I heard some trampling through the brush, and what appeared to be antlers coming toward me. I drew up and looked through my scope to get a better view, and it most definitely the head of a buck coming toward me. I waited for it to enter a clearing to get a better, clean shot on it. To my horror, when the buck entered the clearing I saw that it was my brother in law's, brother...wearing no orange, carrying a freaking decapitated dear head he found. Apparently, he decided to join us last minute and didn't bother telling anyone. He knew where I was posted and was pushing toward me. WTF?

Was it a dear friend or a dear spouse? Either way, hardcore man!

They're, their, and there are my biggest pet peeves, followed closely by deer/dear. Damn it...

An organization committed to protecting animals, just spent a million helping their furry friends be killed quicker, and at higher rates.
