Last Sat. a tragic hunting accident happened here in my neck of the woods . Caleb Fox and his brother were turkey hunting and was hit in the face , arm and chest . I gave Caleb's father trapping lessons 20 years ago and Caleb has followed in his father's footsteps catching over 30 fox last year as a 16 year old . Caleb is also a hard core coyote houndsmen . He is in Strong Hospital , his lung has collapsed twice since recieving treatment . Lets all say a prayer on this one guys . The Trappers Relief Fund will be sending something in the near future and any donations would be greatly appreciated I'm sure . Any donations can be sent to me , NYredfox or Woj . Once again lets all say a prayer , Von

OMG! I hope he pulls throught, my thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
This may be in poor taste and I am SORRY, but how did it happen? To be shot in the face and shoulder and chest, that is bad. Was it close range? Sorry for asking but I am a gun safety nut and I am just curious, that's all!
I hope and pray he makes it.

Someone said at the coon hunt last night that he was home,but that doesnt mean he has recovered.The Gorham Coon Hunters will be sending the family a card with a donation.

..., but how did it happen?... The story according to The Chronicle Express, A tragic incident that should have been avoided. Hopefully he recovers fully and others can learn from the mistakes made that day. At least two or three basic rules broken: 1. Treat every firearm as if loaded, 2. Do not point a firearm at anything you do not want to shoot or destroy, 3. Know your target and what's beyond, 4. Keep your finger off the trigger until on target and ready to fire.not to mention that spring turkeys must be identified by seeing a beard, not a white head, not by gobbling, etc.
