He was a lucky man. Like him I too have done a lot of things hunting that in hind sight we're not safe, not smart and which I would prevent me kids from doing today. Like busting through several inches thick ice on the Nanticoke river to get to a shore blind with the temps 10-20 below zero. Or hunting in Alaska for a Moose, with a .270, when even a child should know Brown Bears were nearby. Or going out into the Cheasapke Bay, in a small gale, so bad I had to use a 32' cabin cruiser to pull my john boat to an island I owned to shoot redheads and cans. Weather was so bad but had to stay three days before I could come back in. Killed a lot of ducks but was lucky to not die doing it. Like I said more lucky than smart.
