Me too. not only is it extremly unsafe but the one time i was hunting by my self i shot the biggest deer of my life(so far) and I had to drag it out my self. Also another good reason to hunt with a buddy
All I gotta say is the quote, "There is a fine line between bravery and stupidity. If you get away with it, you are brave. If you don't, you are stupid."
Again, no one says you hold hands and skip through the daisies. No one is saying you have to keep someone at an arms length. Be smart (and don't shoot you "dear", go more legal game, like deer.
Course, with all the woman bashing going on here, I'm thinking about all the hunting accidents I've known - every single one was a man.

You may think you're bulletproof like all of us thought in our younger years, no pun intended, but listen to the good advice you are getting here. No one is saying this because they think you are not skilled and educated but even experts have accidents. Remember Steve Irwin?
No, no one is trying to rain on your parade, we just want you to be safe.

Great posts! I agree wholeheartedly with what both of you are saying!
Yes, Steve Irwin was one of my favorite people. He didn't know.. He didn't see.. He didn't prepare.. And he didn't have any person that could help him with him.. In a heartbeat his life was gone.
Be safe. And yes, go hug your Mom and tell her you understand
While going hunting with a friend is a good way to make to have fun at the same time
I wouldn't stay home if no one else could go. Just tell your mom you can't stay little forever and at some
point she will have to trust that she raised you rite.
Hope you knock down a big one! Good luck!
