66 and kilt by an elk while hunting.

There’s worse ways to go. Be eaten by wolves/bear/mtn lion while hunting? That would be one of the worse ways.

Man stuck elk, elk suffered wounded all night, elk kills the man next day. Confirms my opinion on archery hunting as a "sport'.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

I was kind of thinking about the late great Timothy Treadwell feeding his pet bears.

At the same time, she was out there acting as his photographer. Maybe she wasn't quite as loony as he was but she was still loony enough to believe his stories about bears being safe.
I've read any number of stories about hunters being attacked by deer, especially horny whitetails. I remember one in particular but I can't remember if it was a whitetail or a muley. The hunter got hold of it's antlers but couldn't let go of it because it kept coming at him. It took a while but he was able to wrestle it into a pond and drown it. IIRC, he had 70 some holes that needed patching.

There are plenty of incompetents, rifle, archery, muzzle loader, hand gun. The ethics of quick humane kills is something instinctive or learned at your father's side. Nothing I say or do will change anyone's mind. Carry on.

Yeah, because we all know that no elk have EVER been wounded by a rifle. I think the latest fad of long range shooting has wounded a LOT of elk. We never hear about those, do we?

Nothing I say or do will change anyone's mind. Carry on. I agree completely but I’ve taken shots with a rifle that didn’t end the way I expected when the shot rang out. Does that mean my dad didn’t teach me properly, I’m incompetent, or that even the right weapon in the hands of a well trained and conscientious person doesn’t guarantee the end we desire?
