Default RE: Finishing off a deer

Im sure some people will say it was the wrong way to show me this but whatever- it worked--- When I first started deer hunting I was with my uncle, dad, and my aunt. My aunt shot a small buck and it would NOT die.

My uncle who is a Vietnam vet and a kinda gruff guy, looked at me and said:

"Here's why you need to know gun safety", then he turned and shot the buck right square between the eyes with his 12 ga.

Needless to say it was pretty messy, but I tell ya what, everytime I have my gun, I think of what that deer looked like and it makes me be careful and I never imagined what kinda of damage it would do when I was taking my hunters safety course. Like I said thats been 8 years ago and I still think about- he got his point across.
