Hunters in the Snow / Tobias Wolff

“‘You’re kidding!’ Frank leaned forward considering ‘that Kenny what a card.’ He laughed and so did Tub,’” (Wolff 201).  They are all irresponsible.  They are not taking Kenny being shot serious enough.  They shot Kenny in the first place.  They hunt terribly and how are they going to sneak up on a deer if they are so loud themselves.  The deer will hear them first and run away before they even get close.  Each character has their own vice which they are ashamed of.  Tub eats continuously and that is the reason for his fatness even though he claims it is his glands.  Tub also hides food at his office and in his car.  Frank is in love with a fifteen year old.  She baby-sits for him and he thinks is the world. They may start to share their feeling sin the end of the story and it seems like they could be more mature but they still do not take proper care of Kenny and are heading in the wrong direction to take him the hospital.
