In coaching competitors , use is made of auto suggestion and some of the methods used such as visualisation would go some way to explain how some people could get it so bably wrong and just harping on about properly identifying the target will just never get the job done .. It needs some real investigation into ways to fiiix the problem .. Ajob for NZDA perhaps

BULLSHIT. The hunters that shoot blokes/women are suffering from Fuckwit Hero Syndrome.The sooner these Fools get some time in Jail the better.

Doesn't prevent it happening though does it, just a reaction to the action. May provide a small amount of deterrent but won't stop it happening.

Prevention is more important, but I agree being whipped with a wet towel is insufficient as punishment. Lock Em up

Nibblet is close to the mark my post was in no way saying that I think that there are not a lot of usless nutters out there who do and will shoot at anything , but on the other hand just shouting the odds does nothing to help prevent others from getting shot .. I am not a grennie or a tree hugger and did alot or research into the subject in the 60's in response to a remit put before the NZDA annual confrenece concerning the wearing of blaze orange ,which was defeated .. those voting against the motion based their vote on honest opion and nothing more than their own actions and experience .. Having been a mountain safety firearms instrutor for more than a few years I can say that I have been doing my bit to help prevent hunters getting shot , but there just has to be more than passing a nother useless law or just punishing the offenders which does nothing for the dead ones or their families .. so keep saying bull shit , wankers , etc that really helps dosent it
