Ruptured Spleen, a Runaway Horse & Why the Mundane Stuff Will Kill You | Gun Talk Hunt

Tyler Freel (Outdoor Life) was a few hundred yards from the truck when his horse decided it was done carrying him. What followed — broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and a ruptured spleen bleeding out internally on a bumpy hour-and-a-half drive to the hospital — is one of the scariest hunting stories you’ll hear this year.

Adam Wies (WhoTeeWho) adds his own close calls involving Crocs, a fixed blade knife, and 50 pounds of corn. KJ’s Halloween spooky series is here, and this one’s a reminder that it’s usually not the dramatic stuff that gets you — it’s the mundane.

This Gun Talk Hunt is brought to you by Smith & Wesson, EOTech, Savage Arms, ZEISS Optics, Shooting Sports Life, Dead Air Silencers, Vortex Optics, and Range Ready Studios.
