Fort Polk is Open

[Jordan]

believe it or not.... Ive seen at least 2 of each case. One fella "thought" a rabbit hunter was a deer and launched an arrow at him and got him in the arm... none were "serious" but Ft polk is pressured. You gotta think, there is 9,000+ soldiers on post. Ft Polk acerage is 105,000+.. thats roughly 1 soldier per 11 acres.... 1/2 of the acerage is not huntable due to it being a range or training area. Basically what im saying or getting at is that there are too many people hunting too small of a space.

Here is a link to a fatal hunting accident... didnt take place on ft polk, but involved a soldier...
