Maybe guywithhandwarmer he was using it to frequently just saying

Yep i always have orange on my head and vest for this reason. I want to be very visible to everybody swinging on birds! Sconis do love orange though so maybe that wasnt the issue.

 

[Rowdie]

F the orange, cammo out so they can't see you, safer that way, especially around sconies

A shot in the nose is nothin' to sneeze at!

When I read the title I was sure I was going to read about some well-deserving 'Sconi who got his ass kicked for trespassing and/or poaching.

Did this with mule deer and antelope for packing reasons. Not too hard.

You stitched their nose or shot a hunting partner in the face?

He was just serving notice of his intolerance for lazy hunting partners. Quite the incentive program he's got going on.

 

[Captain Ahab]

Wrong thread. My bad.

Several years ago, a group of friends were hunting with a guy from Florida. Story has it that he couldn't hit a bull in the ass with a snow shovel. After numerous missed shots and tons of ribbing by the rest of the party, he hauled off and hit one of the guys in the mouth with his shotgun. The guy required emergency surgery and probably lost some teeth. Be careful who you are riding out there.

Too be honest, Im not sure how you can get shot to the point where you need stitches in the face, but overall are just fine.
