“Bow Hunter Shot While Hunting”

While scanning through Bow Hunting news I ran across a bow hunting accident story about a Byrnes Mill Missouri bow hunter that shot his hunting buddy with a arrow, in the face while out deer hunting the first week of the October druring Missouri archery season. This bow hunter claims it was an accident but knowingly pointing a bow with an arrow nocked, then coming to full draw and pointing the weapon at your friend or hunting partner than accidentally touching the release has way to many steps to be considered an accident.

The article states while out on a bow hunting trip the 15 year old victim drew his bow and pointed it at his buddy but had no arrow nocked just before alleged felon drew his bow with a nocked arrow and shot him in the face. That is different than drawing and pointing a nocked arrow at someone knowing that a bow is a weapon and it is deigned to kill!! I wonder what was going through this guys head just before he pulled the trigger on his release?

“Keep Bow Hunting out of the Press!”

I am an avid archery hunter and live for this season every year. Bow hunting kind of fly’s under the radar without this kind of  hunting accidents occurring. This kind of bad press is going to give the gun control fanatics and anti hunters more ammunition to slander the hunting world. They will thinks it is time to start banning bows and arrows. Oh WAIT A MINUTE, bows and arrows don’t kill people, people kill people!
