No ethical deer hunter would ever consider using buckshot. More deer are wounded and never recovered every year with buckshot than any other hunting round.
I shot my first deer when I was 10 years old using 12 ga buckshot. It was a 30 yard broadside shot and the deer ran for 50 yards before it went down. When my father and I found the deer hidden in the brush pile the deer becan to "Cry"- more like a scream than anything else. It was the worst sound I had ever listend to. I refused to hunt deer for 4 years after that. If the area you want to hunt is buckshot only I would suggest you find another area to hunt. Its all about the CLEAN kill.
