I had a guy take a shot in camp after "unloading his gun" and putting the fire arm in his truck bed rack. As he put the gun in the rack he pulled the trigger and fired a round up in the air... This was his 1st and last year at my camp. I give people a chance and had a heated argument with the "new guy" about hunting and patterning deer in the ADK the 2nd day in camp. He had a argument with another hunter that came later in the week and with the person who invited him. I could have forgiven all that, but when I was informed of the accident AFTER he left the camp, I let everyone know that was his last strike. He will never stay at my camp again. No place for complacancy at deer camp when handleing fire arms. Hunt hard and be safe!!! My question to other hunters is what accidents have you had and where do you draw the line. I will start to have younger hunters coming up to our camp in two years and will not tolerate any complacancy when handleing a gun. Call me safe but anyone who fires a round off by accident is not a person I want to hunt with... And I do not see myself giving this person a 2nd chance as he was supposed to be a hunter with close to 30 years under his belt. PS: This guy was a compulsive liar, stating he shot more than 300 deer and telling me how he was above me at 2900 feet when I informed him I was at 2800 and telling me his GPS clocked over 28 miles in 3 days. All of which I disproved on the spot...
