Thumbs up Good Point On The Blinds Fabs

To be honest, I never really thought about it but it seems to make good sense.

BTW- Going along with this post, I was driving into work one morning this past week and heard a story about a farmer in downstate Clinton county that has taken to spray painting his entire herd of cattle, goats, and emus(sp?) hunter orange as he is "tired of hunters shooting his animals during the hunting season."

I nearly choked on my coffee, along with spraying my windshield. Now, first of all, Illinois is a slug-only firearm state for deer hunting so you mean to tell me that a hunter can't distinguish the game that they might be shooting 100-maybe 150 yards away?

I couldn't help but wonder if either this fella has had a run-in with locals or if the media either got the story wrong or just plain made it up.

Who mistakes an emu (sp?) for a deer and shoots it?
