After reading the first few posts it reminded me of why I haven't been back here since Feb. with all the bashing and so called professional advice. This guy has plenty to be happy about by killing two deer with one shot. Who is to say that buckshot is not lethal and effective. I don't use it, but I sure don't condemn anyone who does. I have killed several in the past with it as it was the only legal method available to me. Let's all deer hunt together as a group and stand behind one another.
