hmmmm. skybuster does not sit there waiting to pop a deer in the brain. neither do I. But I am with him. when the only shot your presented is a does head through an opening in the brush, if I am comfortable with the range I will take it. i voted # 4 as well. this will never sway any opinions either way. and it is legal, so we are just beating this toic to death. I don't think any of us try to shoot a deer in the head just go the heck of it. but if that is the shot that is given. I have no problem taking it.

Neither do I. My point was you're saving little, if any, meat with a head shot versus dbl lung shot. That was the question in the thread starter, along with whether it was ethical or not.If that's the only presentable shot and it's in doable range....I don't think
anyone here hasgot a problem with it.I have seen guys in the woods or at the registration station that thought they were the Lee Harvey Oswalds of the deer hunting world, and it's crap because at one point or another...if you concentrate on nothing but headshots, you'll haveyour shareof wounded deer...and the deer deserves more than that in my opinion. Taking pop shots at me and some other guy he's never meant is a little over the top too, I think....and if you read all of his posts in this thread, he's not saying what you're saying. He's on here looking for a pissing match, plain and simple. I voted for #2....should've been #4.
