Default RE: SO HOW MANY DID YOU MISS?

7th year of hunting, so far i've hit everything i've shot with a rifle. When I first started hunting I almost never shot. It was like I'd see a rabbit or bird take off but instead of shooting i'd just announce it and let others shoot. Pretty much the same with deer. If it wasn't a sure shot I didn't take it. As I got more experience though I grew out of that stage and blast away just like the rest of them now :-p

I think i'm 4 for 5 on deer. I've never missed one but I did wound one once. We tracked it for awhile but came up empty handed. All my other deer dropped dead on the spot but my cousin walked up on me while I was getting ready to take this doe and it started running(from behind me to infront of me). Wasn't a far shot only about 20 yards but it was my first on a running deer.



With the muzzleloader on the other hand, I have yet to hit one
I think i've probably taken 4 or 5 shots at deer now with it.
