    In a different thread there was a little debate about the ill prepared hunter coming over, more so for dangerous game.

    bad hunter experiences

    not to highjack the bad outfitter thread, but got me thinking about the bad hunters, the one story with the Elle and bow hunter sure is one that sticks out.
