RE: would you have taken the shot
I would have taken it and did yesterday on a nice buck at 50 yards. In the bush with a tree on each side of him. OH and Imissed, think I flinched with a small hang fire of a fraction of a second. He was about a 1/ wider then his ears with 12 G1 and a 4 (8 American) pointer. Would have scored about 135. Not big but still nice.
