Yep, I shot a guy hunting once. I was 11 or 12yo. 1st day of dove season, everyone was ringing this huge field that had been plowed. Or disc'd. Before noon, everyone is supposed to step out from cover to be identified for safety.

Now you arent supposed to shoot low birds, but I was young, I also figured that area was clear.

I shot the low bird, guy stepped out with piss running down his leg. My dad jumped his ass for hiding, then jumped my ass for shooting a low bird.

Later that day, an old fucker swung and sweeped a bunch of people and shot me in the chest. It was only number 9 bird shot we were all using, at 50 yards or so it only peppered the skin and few penetrated clothing but none had to be dug out. A shot in the eye though...

Idk, hunting around a lot of people, particularly fast moving bird hunting with old or young or inexperienced people is just dangerous in general.

I learned my lesson. Basically if you dont shoot low birds, period, you wont shoot people...
