I didnt know it was loaded !..Kinda graphic
« on: October 05, 2009, 09:43:41 AM »
Found these pics on-line and thought would share with you'll..Shows that you can never be to careful..From story with pics it appears that the shooter didn't know anther hunter was in area and thought he was a deer..Just another reminder of..BE SURE OF TARGET..
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me
Genesis 27:3

I may not have alot but what I have I got honest.....

I'd rather be hated for what I am then be loved for what I'm not

Is it me, or are people getting dumber

The pictures has been around for some time now.
The actual story is...
Two guys were hunting together, they spotted a deer and the guy in front ducked down so the other archer could shoot over him.. sight window was clear, but arrow path was not. he was shot point blank.

Or so I am told

Thats a Thunderhead allright, kinda weird that they broke the arrow instead of unscrewing it.....

He broke it off so he could stab his buddy in the heart for shooting him.

Here is a PERFECT exaple of three-bladed broadheads' inability to penetrate bone.

Do you think there is a law suit in someone's future?

Poor Guy!
“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter can not be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.”

Those are some amazing photos. I find it hard to believe that the broadhead wouldn't have gone completely through at point blank range. Either way that guy is really lucky and they both are not too bright.

Did any one else notice all the crap lying around in that hospital.  Looks like they took him to a machine shop to have the arrow removed.  :dunno:

Very Lucky guy though.

Poor Guy!
The arrow was still on the string when it hit the guy. If it was unloaded at full speed, it would have come out in his face depending om the poundage of the bow.. BTW, I put a thunder head clean through an elks skull at 60 yds.
