Hunting hogs then a bullet whizzes past my head

[stuntriderant]

Yep. Sitting up in my tripod and hear a shot far off. A couple seconds later I hear the sound of the round hissing past my face and tumble through the trees behind me! That was not fun..

Been there done that. I stood on the only road out and gave some fat *** lazy guys an ear full... I was even parked in clear sight of where they were shooting.

Some people just don't care.

Wouldn't you hear the bullet first, and then the shot?

How close do you think it came to you? Scary stuff!

Have no idea. All I know is I heard the shot and a high pitched whizzing nose goes past my face then I hear it kinda go through the branches. I drive my rhino to the road and it ended up being one of the farmers and his sons spot lighting and shooting at yotes. From where they shot and to my tripod was a long ways. They were shooting a 30 06.

[Seacoal]

Bullet would have have to gone subsonic to hear the shot first! But still, thats crazy

[Shinesintx]

How did this get resolved?

[Chance Love]

I've had it happen more than once. Never a fun thing.

As a kid, a friend of mines dad was a ranchhand on a big ranch out by Enchanted Rock in Llano county. We went to the ranch one weekend with his dad, brother and their church pastor. Their dad had to go tend to cattle and the priest decided to go on a walk with a twenty two on one shoulder and a mini 14 on the other. We were fishing in a creek and he was well aware of where we were. After about 30 minutes, we here two shots from the 22 then 2 bullets fly over our heads. The priest shows back up with two squirrels and asked us to clean them. Seems to me we heard the shots first, maybe they had a little airmail?
