Default RE: The bad thought thread

I missed only once, but it was on a fall time hen so I wasn't overly mad. I wanted a bird for a family dinner. Was setup perfect for them to pass by on an afternoon hunt. Whole flock is coming in, and I'm holding out for the toms in the back. My friend is with me filming, and he makes too much excess movement, spooking the front birds, and sending the flock in retreat. One of the hens stopped at 40 yards, I swung on her and missed. I must have rushed the shot, my gun shoots a very good pattern and she was standing dead still. I got over it.

Worst part was, on the walk in i was bragging about how I had never missed a bird.[X(] The 7 before her all dropped stone dead.
