    We just learned that Avery Pro-Staffer Josh Leger was tragically killed yesterday while hunting in his home province of Quebec. Details are sketchy at this point, but apparently someone in an automobile fired a rifle at his decoys hitting Josh in the head.

    Again, I don’t have any more details, but our prayers go out to all of Josh’s friends and family. As we get more details we’ll post them here.

    This is the link to Josh’s bio. http://www.averyoutdoors.com/pro_sta...html#LegerJosh

    He was out hunting with friends and clients and someone thought his spread of snow geese was an actual flock that had landed. The guy pulled over and crawled his way into the field and took one shot with a .22 rifle. Hitting Josh right above the eye. His partner heard the whistling of a flying bullet and then a tiny impact, asked Josh if he had heard. When no answer came, he turned around and realise Josh had been hit. The rest of the story is irrelevant, Josh is dead.

    Hopefully involuntary manslaughter and he gets a prison sentence where he will meet Bubba.
