LOTS of times!!!

There's nothing more humbling and PAINFUL....

A few times, I was able to get him on the 2nd shot with my 10 s/s.

Most misses were due to the fact that "he was too close and I had a poor sight picture"

Lesson learned: DON'T pull that trigger 'til you satisy ALL the requirements for a clean kill....There's nothing wrong with passing up the shot and waiting 'til the next day if necessary....he'll still be there if you don't scare him into the next county.
