That same kind of accident happened just happened about a month ago up in Belle Plaine Minnesota. (near the Twin Cities). Here is the newpaper article below...

An 8-year-old boy was shot and killed by his father late Saturday afternoon in a Sibley County hunting accident 3 miles northwest of Belle Plaine.

The boy and his father were turkey hunting near County Road 6 in Faxon Township, about 3 miles from Hwy. 25, said Sibley County Sheriff Bruce Ponath. The father called for help from his cell phone, and the Belle Plaine fire department and ambulance service responded along with the Sibley County sheriff's office, Ponath said. The boy was pronounced dead at the scene.

Ponath declined to release the names of the boy or his father or give further details about the accident Saturday night but said the two were the only members of the hunting party.

I do too and I am sure many of our hunting members do too... but i just cannot comprehend people that continue to do the #1 DO NOT rule of hunting.

Just Plain Stupid!! Imagine having to live with that on your shoulders.
Hunter safety courses should be mandatory to all new hunters. Virginia has cut down on gun accidents since they made safety courses. If you miss a season you have to retake the class.
