Felt Recoil when Hunting
Guys,
I've noticed over the years that no matter what caliber you're firing, when it's at game, there's never a perception of recoil. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. Maybe adrenaline?
What are your opinions?

i agree. i've never felt the recoil while hunting. i've felt reprecussions from recoil after(i was turkey hunting and my shoulder was too close to the tree) but that's it.

HUNTER06FlKy,
You made me laugh about Turkey hunting and the tree. One time I was Dove hunting a field and had sat down to rest when a dove flew straight at me and on over my head. Well, I followed him with my shotgun and fired after he had passed me leaning way back.......Ouch. Drove me right into the ground. I laughed at myself for a while after that stupid maneuver.

I had an older 10ga side by side with the dual triggers. Not sure if it was supposed to or not, but you could pull both at once. I was turkey hunting and made that mistake, and let me tell you, the recoil was felt.
