Another hunter who cannot identify deer if it ran over him

Hunter thought a brown pickup was a deer. To give him the benefit of the doubt, it was probably a Dodge Ram.

Actually I bet he was pissed off because the hunter disturbed his hunting ground and just said he thought it was a deer to get off easier.


Dumbass hunter story

An Ohio hunter was charged on Friday after he fired at a brown pickup truck when he thought it was a deer in western New York — the second hunting incident in the area within a week, authorities said.
Marvin C. Miller, 26, of Middlefield, was hunting near Snake Forest Road in North Harmony around 11:20 a.m. when he thought he spotted a deer, but it turned out to be a brown pickup truck, Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. He fired his 7-mm. high-powered scoped rifle at the truck, striking the front fender of the driver’s side. Sheriff Joe Gerace told The Post-Journal Miller was “absolutely irresponsible.”

I live in the heart of deer hunting season. The first two weeks of November are my worst two weeks of the year for us non hunters. A few years ago a guy "heard a deer" in the woods and fired. He killed his nephew. Then there was the guy that shot a dog while the woman was walking it on a leash. He claimed he thought he was shooting at a wolf. There is also the guy a number of years ago that was pissed off that he hadn't bagged a doe so on the last day he started shooting at the tires of passing cars.

Klehner posted it. I hadn't seen a picture of the guy before - he looks like a dirt bag.

There is a saying among some hunters - "if it is brown, it is down".

Are you talking about the deep south? :-) Sounds very racist to me.

Similar story in the Boston Globe last week about a woman in Maine who was shot while riding a bike on a trail through the woods by a hunter who thought she was a deer. Luckily she survived but yet another example of some knucklehead who hears something and shoots without looking or confirming his target.
