    Terrible
    Tragic
    Can't imagine

    I used to man drive with a small group of buddies in rock hill, but I'm very particular about the groups of people I get around with firearms.

    Man, this makes me sick. I have no information in which to base any judgement. Impulse control is a tricky thing
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    Matt was a great man and father, his family and children will need all of the prayers they can get as they process this.

It's probably one of the most dangerous styles of deer hunting out there IMO.
    It was 100% a man drive.

    Thanks for the response Jim. My son and I have had this conversation several times over the years. He's done a number of man drives where the drivers also carry firearms. Not a a good idea IMO.
    Over the years the have been quite a few hunters killed on man drives. Particularly in the NE where they don't hunt with dogs and man drives are more common.
    Like others, this story hurts my heart. The obituary says he left behind 5 kids.
    Yall be safe out there.

    The part about five kids just kills me.

    Dang. Only thing I can do is pray for everyone involved. Praying for the family, the club, and everyone involved. Such a sad and horrible situation
