Ain't that the truth. I missed one with Nitros that was completely on me. Bird was in strut standing behind a log. When I target my bird I like to set his head on top of my bead. I did this but wasn't thinking about him being in strut or behind the log. I filled the log full of Hevi-shot. He was about 40 yards but had gone so far to my left that I wouldn't be able to turn any further and still shoot.

The only other one I missed I killed a nice 3 year old........sapling that is.
