Obviously someone was there that shouldn't have been. At least with a bow you have a chance to scream , usually with a gun you don't hear the bullet that kills you.

Well I guess some deer are like some people I know!

Yup I agree, If it wasn't for bowhunting I wouldn't hunt.........Except maybe sheep, cause most of those guys that freak me out, never come up top where the view is.
