RE: Leading a running Deer???
Shooting a running deer IMHO is not the crime you're making it out to be. I've killed several deer on the run. once you get a certain level of experience, i think it's ok. i killed my buck last year in iowa last year on the run. i dont think it's a shot for beginners; however, taken by a skilled marksmen who's got a few deer under his/her belt, it's a perfect fine shot to take. I dumped a deer at around 235 yards running a couple years ago. not even lying. I was under the impression the deer was wounded, and i did not want a deer to get away wounded to die a painful agonizing death. i corrected for range and the fact the deer was running, and was shocked to see it collapse on the spot and die. this is the only time i'd take the long running shot, when i know the deer is wounded and i need to put it down immediately.
