Shooting "Lanes" a Must.. This happened last year... I had given a safety talk in the blind that morning..
Well about 50 teal zoomed in on my extremely right end of the blind where I was seated.. My friend got excited, and as the birds passed my side of the blind he decided to shoot almost right over my head..
Lucky I saw it coming and stayed seated.. The concussion from the gun shot blast sent me to the floor in the pit blind.. Almost blew my left ear drum OUT..
I was deaf in the Left ear for almost one month.. My hearing came back slowly.. But It took almost a month..
No shooting over each others heads are a MUST.
PS. I haven't hunted with My "friend" SINCE that Happened.. That one laps in judgement on his part ended our 14 yr. friendship.
