Just got the annual weekend report on deaths during deer opener in MN. Someone, somehow lit themselves on fire, fell out of their tree stand and died due to the impact. So yep, death can happen many ways and at all times and it has nothing to do with the time of the year the hunting occurs. This past weekend it was still in the 50's.

Not sure if there are more deaths later in the year but I am sure that someone has that statistic some where. But, people also die bike riding, four wheeling....hell I am sure someone has died trying to deep fry a frozen turkey but it goes with the territory."
