It's an indication as to the direction someone else is and quite possibly someone has just harvested an animal. We were able to help a couple of young successful moose hunters get a nice bull out to the adjacent cut line 20 some years ago because we heard the report of the rifle. They got an extra couple sets of hands out of the deal and by the end of it we had a pretty good idea of where everyone from both groups were going to roughly be over the next week. It was good interaction between the two groups. Unfortunately the only other shots that week came from a bottle of Bonded Stock after supper a few nights. I'm with others on this one when it comes to jumping out of the way of a shot, I don't think you would have a hope in hell in"dodging that bullet".
Good lord. Thanks for the laugh.
