It's possible that he was reloading his muzzleloader for a second shot. Those bore loaders can discharge if they're hot. Our prayers go out to these men's families.

Was this a case of mistaken identity or accidental discharge?

My condolences to the family.

Dick Cheney is on the loose again.

Yeah, ol feller, I take it that some of the so called, country folks never used a two hole out door toilet or got drinking water from a Well.

25 miles apart is not near the area, it just in the same county. either get it straight or dont say it at all.

It's blackpowder season right now.

And beyond a location and that someone was shot and killed, there are no other facts in the current article but that means its open season for the speculators.

The rifle could have accidentally discharged killing the one hunter.

The primer channel on the rifle could have been clogged. The primer fires, but the rifle fails to discharge so the presumption by some is that the rifle is no longer dangerous even though it is still charged with powder and a bullet.

And I would go hunting with Dick Cheney in a heartbeat. He would have access to land that most could only dream about.

At this time of the year, 6 p.m. is too late to be hunting, it starts getting dusky dark at that time, which affects a person's vision.

Surely, jess you don't expect the Bush haters to use actual facts, do you? They didn't use them the whole 8 years that Bush was in office, why should they start now? :)

Very good post ol feller. I don't understand most of the comments here either. I don't know what Rosie of AllSmiles is laughing about, but it's in very poor taste.

my view, Sand Springs (10/26/2009 9:52:05 AM)

That gun had better be a muzzleloader.

my view, Sand Springs (10/26/2009 9:55:13 AM)

That crack is getting old billy8.

H_Harl says "I'm all for people hunting"

Well I agree, just let them child molesters go and give me a shotgun with a 3 1/2" magnum slug and make it pedophile season.

It's a long way to that two-holer from mid-December to mid-February and that well water would freeze your insides, but the water was good, I have less desirable memories of that 2-holer....

This is the one time of year I don't enjoy living out here in the country. Have to wear an orange vest just to walk in the yard.

I guess the deer have CCP's too.

Someone mistook him to be a buck.

Hilarious, Corvetteguy!

My daughter and I were nearly shot by hunters while we were horseback riding. Don't know what those two 'hunters' thought they were doing hiding behind that round bale up on the meadow and in the area where we rode, but they weren't suppose to be there.

Ayo, T-Town (10/26/2009 1:49:05 PM)

dustyoutlaw, not all hunters are that way.

My brother-in-law went out and would get one Elk a year which fed his family. This was on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation and there were no limits, season, or tags. Those guys knew what to do, when to hunt, and how to not overkill.

They didn't use any sissified four wheeler to haul it, either.

I was too young to know whether Jimmy Carter was a good or bad Prez, but he sure is a good man. He's one of those Christians whose walk matches his talk. He's a great man.

eh, hate to point it out right now, but hunting deer is necessary.

Prayers to the family...Sorry for your loss.

I quit deer hunting after hearing a couple of old farts make a comment about "getting a couple of sound shots" one morning on the way to a deer hunting weekend.

I finshed my coffee and went back home - haven't been out since.
