huntered,

If he had been drunk driving and killed an 18 yr old would you defend him? He f-ed up and now he must reap the the consequences. He screwed up plain and simple. Shooting at a coyote in the goose spread. Give me a break. He was gonna shoot him a goose with his highpower. Thats what this amounts too? Did he even have permission to hunt there? My sources say no and I have some good ones. I am no balistics expert but when I am in my layout blind I am 14 inches off the ground at my highest point so he shot low at the decoys. I hope the throw the book at the SOB. Just 2 days ago there was a gentleman looking at geese through a highpower rifle's scope. Whether you want to admit it, this happens alot. 3rd hunter killed like this in 2007. Not all from Kansas, but this is an quickly becoming a problem.

As for wearing blaze orange during goose hunting, give me a break. A flag in the layout blind is a good idea, but I shouldnt have to worry about getting shot by some poacher from the road while partaking in a perfectly legal activity.
