As some of the hunting seasons begin, there are always those chances that you or someone you're hunting with might get hurt. There are ways you can prevent getting hurt, and things you can remember that might help you get out of that possibly life-threatening situation.
One thing you have to be sure to do is to treat every firearm as if it is loaded, and always have the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. You should always wear hunters orange over at least 50 percent of your body, which is the legal amount. Always let someone know where you are going to be hunting, and when you plan on returning.
People need to control their emotions when they're hunting. If you're sad or upset it could alter your train of thought and could potentially harm someone. Also, don't hunt while you're under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Be certain of your target, and what's beyond it, and unload firearms when not in use.
