This is the second time around for me on this one but it is over the top. Did any of you notice how close the guy in the white in the background came to getting shot. Dale

I remember seeing the charge part of this clip some time ago.  After I could breath again, my reaction was the same as Dale's.  That's a whole lot of bang'n go'n on at very close quarters!  The shooting is at least as spooky as that toothy-clawed monster!

As for me, I'm planning on hunting the dangerous and deadly whitetail come Thursday's Michigan opener ;D.
