Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles "Too pretty to hunt with?"

I’ve had good luck out in the woods. I can’t say I’ve ever had any noticeable mishaps out there. A ten inch thick tree branch I was sitting on broke once while out hunting.I fell 10 feet flat on my back on a huge flat boulder below. All I could think of was to hold my shotgun level to the ground and extended my arms up so it didn’t go off or break. Not a scratch to me or the rifle- go figure. On the way down broken spine or smashed rifle flashed through my mind.I got up and walked to another spot as if nothing happened.Ironically I’ve had more mishaps and damages to my rifles at the range.
