[nabs-l] an interesting question

[Mark J. Cadigan]

Hunting is different. In order to hunt you have to distinguish between the 
target animal and other movement and sounds in the woods. Not knowing what 
you are shooting at and what's behind it has caused many a hunting accident.

Also people go hunting with buddies all the time. It is not that much of a 
limitation to be required to go hunting with a sighted buddy. Besides it is 
safer not only from a vision standpoint, but from a wilderness safety 1.1 
standpoint as well. You know, the buddy system.
