Harley,the area that I rifle hunt in Kentucky each year is very similar to the area that I hunt in Indiana. Hills, hollers, thick timber, open timber, rolling pastures, and ag crops. There are a good number of hunters in our group & good numbers that hunt the bordering properties. Since 1986 there have been no near miss incidents to report. I think that most people that rifle hunt realize the lethal range of their weapon & act accordingly when afield. I also think that many shotgun hunters do not realize the lethal range of slugs, and get a little sloppy @ times.
