As some of you know I've been filming hunts for 8 years and a lot of my footage goes to Jeron Detty in Chillicothe. Jeron is a good friend of mine and we hunt several times a year together. I didn't want to post this until I got it cleared but now that the media has it I figured I would share it. Our buddy Jed was flying his chopper and Jeron and Shane were filming in New Mexico for another show allowing them to get capture aerial footage when a gust of wind takes them out. Got the call when they were all in hospital saying everyone was okay and would be home soon.

Crazy stuff! When Dave told me about it a couple weeks ago I was amazed they all walked away relatively unscathed. They're very fortunate. I lost my cousin the same way. Helo pilot that flew guys to rigs in the gulf caught a bad wind and went down.
