Hauling a loaded gun in or out of a treestand is a recipe for disaster and last week it cost a North Carolina man his life. Justin Sellers,22 of Leland NC was killed when he lowered a loaded rifle out of his deer stand last Wednesday and the weapon discharged striking him in the heart. A momentary lapse in judgment cost this man his life and I hope everyone remembers to unload their gun before climbing into a stand. If you need a way to get your unloaded gun safely in and out of your stand you should check out the Gun Triever. Also take a hunter safety class to educate yourself on how to hunt safely and avoid a tragedy like this. Our thoughts and prayers are with Justin’s family and friends at this extremely difficult time.
