Where I gun hunt we put on "drives" or "pushes" whatever you wanna call it. I've been hunting for nine years now, I got my sixteenth and seventeenth rifle deer this year. of the 17 all but 2 were at a trot or run. I did lose one one time. I think I must have hit it too far back. It was raining hard that day, and I just couldn't follow the trail. I tried hard tho. I practice shooting squirrels with my .22, We've done the tire trick a few times for fun. And I just try and shoot a little every day.
I hunt with a bunch of old guys, mostly great uncles. So I've been the dog my entire life, which I'm fine with. But gotta be quick to shoot sometimes.
