- yes he was wearing ALL orange, more than required. Full blaze orange coat, pants and hat- no camouflage or any other ridiculous things mentioned
- everyone in the gang had their possession and acquisition licenses and all required safety training, in fact some people were or are volunteer firefighters.
- no one tripped
- NO poaching
- and NO one was drinking either, as I am sure people are wondering that too
It was a one in a million shot. Through thick brush and trees, I don't even know how the bullet got to him as the shot was fired fairly far away. Sometimes things just don't make sense, and speculating on something that you have no idea about just hurts the people involved. Simply put, it was a horrible accident, sometimes accidents do happen no matter what kind of precautions are taken. So please, before judging too quickly, take a moment and put yourself in someone's else shoes. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. David was a good guy, a loving father and a wonderful husband.
Rest in peace David. Me and your boys will always love you.
Thank you for your courage to put rumors to rest. Here is a valuable lesson for posters on these threads. Please accept my sincerest condolences on the loss of a great husband,father and dedicated hunter and conservationist. This is a sad loss for everyone.
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

It is with great sadness that I am reading your story here. Please accept my sincerest sympathy to you and the rest of your family.
As a hunter for about forty years I feel for you. It is a small comfort to think of the happy hunting memories your husband would have shared with you in the past. Again please accept my sincerest condolence as I feel we have lost one of our own also.

I am very sorry for your loss, when we take to the woods we rarely think of anything but relaxation, bonding, celebration. We never want to think that doing something we all love could turn to tragedy.
Thank you very much for having the courage to share the facts and stop the spreading of rumors.
Deepest condolences from my family to yours.

Thank you for taking the time during this difficult time, to put rumours to rest. Don't take the speculation and misinformation personally. In thus day of social media's this stuff gets too much momentum, before the facts are in.
My deepest condolences for your loss. My thoughts are with your family during this difficult time.
