Recent story which missed the 6PM news - a foursome of hunters in the wilds of Maryland aiming at a flock of Canadian geese. One member shot one and it fell out of the sky and hit his buddy on the head, rendering him unconscious. It said they can weigh 14/16 pounds + the buckshot. They had to medivac /airlift the wounded fellow out to a hospital. I wonder how the E.R. wrote this up and how his insurance handled it. There is an old saying "The goose hangs high" - but when it falls you had better be wearing a hard hat - and "duck". And to think it used to be all a hunter had to worry about was Dick Cheney.
