    Looks like near safety fail to me. Goddamn.
    Some people call the midwest the heartland, I prefer to think of it as the liver. Not too interesting, and easy to ignore until it quits working.

    Yeah.  Camera guy muzzle-flagged the others in the video, tracking the deer.  When he fired, it looks like he had already lost sight of it in the brush, but it's hard to tell on that from a shaky Go-Pro camera. 

    Still.  I don't think coming at your game animal from two directions is that great of an idea.  I'm all for the classic pincer movement, but it seems like there's a good chance of getting a crossfire going if everyone gets too excited.

    Well, he held off a good while before making a clean-kill, just about.

    Tracking across people like that is something I'd only really do in emergency or warfare etc.

    Not somebody I'd hunt with.

    Hard to tell from the video but I hope I'd forgo that shot -- too dangerous to the rest of the party.  No one will go hungry if I don't bag a deer today.
    CaliforniaOf course I carry a gun!  It gives me a chance against the sinners and protection from the righteous.

    If you are going through hell then don't stop. Keep going until you find the exit.

    Cutting it a bit close, yes.  But he did make sure the other hunters moved off angle.  So...
    Fine... I guess.
