Like everyone else said, everyone misses a shot every once in awhile. I just missed one the other day and theres nothin i can do about it except get back out there and try again. Theres really no way to practice for the real thing no matter how good of a shooter you are. You'll never get the sameadrenalin rushwhen youre takin aim at a target. The only real practice is to just get out there and do it.

Personally i will not shoot the cats around my house.Afew years back, the man that lived down the street moved and of coarse the cats stayed. They werewere verymean and would get into everything. I guess he just had a few that would roam around the neighborhood and then they had a litter every year. There had to be almost 20+ cats runnin around. And yes, if one of them came under my stand, i would have shot it. But now the only cats i see are fairly tame and theres only about 3.

Be careful what you say on the walkie talkies. I live in PA so it is legal to talk on them while hunting. I shot a6 point and was jokin around w/ my dad, tellin him it was a b&c buck. Well someone had a scanner and came out to look at my "monster buck". Boy were they surprised lol.
