shoot them in the head and it will drop. Around were i hunt there is enough does around were if i see a doe i can shoot at it in the head and if i miss o well but if i hit it good another deer. I have never got a good shot at a buck in the head and i dont know if i would try anyways because it is such a small target. I shot a 8 4x4 in the head last year but it wasnt on pursose. It was a long shot at a deer walking towards me and my cousin shot and missed and it still stood there so i took a shot and it droppe.
