I wouldn't be so confident if I took 300yd shots, but my shots are close. I'm using a scope now. If I can't hit the kill zone, I better get out the rocking chair.
Let me add a little to all this. I never planned to use PB's in my hunt this year. Although I did consider it for awhile. It just bothered me to see them trashed so bad, when what i've observed in person was positive. Not all the kills I witnessed were perfect shots either.
So, I decided to use them to prove a point. Not that they could work, but that they do work. I would never put game in danger of not taking a humane shot. Anybody who really knows me would know that. I expected some flak, but not what I got. It did show me what some of you are about though. Enough so that I don't want to be on the same forum with you.
Some of you can thump your chest, because you think you know everything. Some of us know better.
