Invisible Hunting Hazards
There are several invisible hunting hazards that are not normally
seen as hazards to the average hunter.
Another invisible hazard is noise. Gun noise is easily loud
enough to cause permanent hearing loss. A shot or two a day does a little
imperceptible damage but the
real damage
is done during practice or sighting scopes.
Eye damage is always a possibility. Damage from invisible
ultraviolet light can happen quickly if hunting a field during bright
sunlight. The possibility of an exploding barrel or exploding misfired
ejected shell is remote but if it happens
blindness can be forever.
