NI Man Gets Jail In Hunting Accident

Item: Shooter in hunting accident heads to jail Friday; Dalton Gardens man to begin 180-day sentence /Meghann M. Cuniff, SR

More Info: A North Idaho man who accidentally shot and killed another hunter in Shoshone County last year will report to jail Friday to begin a six-month sentence. James L. Egan, 64, of Dalton Gardens, mistook James R. Hinchliff, 57, of Deer Park, for an animal when he shot him in November near Thompson Pass Road. The families involved in the tragedy that shattered a longtime tradition between three hunters hope their story will become a catalyst for a movement to mandate hunter orange in Idaho, which neither hunter was wearing when the shooting occurred Nov. 18 near Murray.

Question: Do you voluntarily wear hunter orange while hunting? Why? Why not?
