308. Every year in WI out of 750,000 deer hunters
Mon Nov 25, 2013, 10:11 PM
Nov 2013

There are always 6 to 9 fatal heart attacks in the 9 day gun deer season.

Its no different than the first snow fall when a dozen or so out of shape humans die of an MI by shoveling heavy wet snow.

Dragging a 175 pound deer for a distance out of a wet snowy slippery woods is not for the out of shape or faint of heart.

If he had parked that ATV years ago and trudged around on foot, maybe, just maybe his ticker.... Brother Buzz Nov 2013 #1
What the hell is with the "natural causes" bullcrap? That's from the days when we didnt rhett o rick Nov 2013 #177
A massive heart attack isn't a natural cause for death? Brother Buzz Nov 2013 #195
