Hey everyone, I've been following the discussion on Michael Ryan Kottke's tragic death and wanted to bring something up that got me thinking. I came across some posts detailing that this happened close to the intersection of Stumpf Road and Wild Goose Road. I don't know if anyone here is familiar with the area, but I was wondering if there might be any nuances in the terrain that could have contributed to the accident. I know from experience how easy it is to lose your footing or misjudge distances in certain landscapes. With hunting being such a big part of life there, does anyone with local knowledge have insight into whether the layout or any specific characteristics of this location might have posed an additional hazard? My condolences to his family and friends during this unimaginable time. It’s clear from the tributes how deeply loved he was and how much he adored his family and community. Sending strength and warmth to all who are mourning him.

Does anyone else find it unsettling how often we hear about these tragic hunting accidents, especially during deer season? Michael Ryan Kottke’s untimely death is weighing heavily on my mind. From everything I've read, he seemed like such a warm-hearted person, devoted to his family and community. It’s devastating to think of that little boy growing up without his father. Plus, Michael's passing has left a void that stretches beyond his family – Oakfield and Lomira have lost a good soul. I just keep pondering over safety protocols and awareness. Given it was the opening day of the season, was there some kind of misstep or oversight that could have been prevented? These incidents serve as a reminder for all hunters to perhaps refresh their safety practices. My thoughts are with his family, especially his wife and son – I can’t imagine the depth of their sorrow.
