    The deer got together and said they were tired of piss poor shooters and even worse trackers. They want a clean death, and are embarrassed when they end up on trailcam pics with their jaw blown off or an arrow in their ass.

    Deer hunting is a lot more difficult than, say, turkey hunting.

    Exactly. I'm still dumbfounded when an adult tells me they missed a deer with a rifle inside 200 yards. It literally couldn't be any easier

    There is no such thing as an automatic shot. If you believe there is, you're approaching the level of arrogance required to prove my point. I've hunted with guys who've killed some incredible animals both up close and far away and none of those gents would dare tell you they haven't botched "easy" shots or made "rookie" mistakes when the chips were down.

    Dead Downwind makes dryer sheets that smell like winning.

    Most rifle hunters I know suck at it.

    Got a 30-07mm magnum with a $1200 scope,....just point and shoot.

    Got to take that shot before he gets away.

    When you take a shot under the following terms you don't deserve to be able to hunt.

    1. It is a once in a lifetime buck. I will take shot (even though I know it isn't in vitals) and hope for the best.
    2. If I don't take this shot I will never get another chance. (Maybe it will cripple it enough that I can get LUCKY and find it
    3. Buck is standing at 300ish yards ( my gun is sighted in at 100 yards) but I can just aim little high and MAYBE I can hit it.
    4. Angle of deer doesn't matter I am shooting a rifle and it will do enough damage
    5 trying for a neck or head shot but can't put a 2 shot group in a 5" circle
    6 trying for neck or head shot and your heart beat has the gun jumping all over the place. ( Or aren't capable of making that shot with a steady rest)
    7 shooting through brush ( well it is a rifle it will go through that limb and still do enough Damage.

    More bucks are lost because of the above scenarios than you can imagine.
    We as hunters owe it to the animal to take ethical shots and practice making those shots.

    One of the things I drilled into my son when he started sitting by himself was when you shoot a deer I want you to be able to answer following questions when I get here.

    Was deer tail tucked or standing up?
    Did deer buckle, kick, draw up?
    Where was last place you saw deer?
    Where was last place you heard deer running/crashing?

    Yes these scenarios are beyond redicilous but it happens more often than you think. Get around bunch of hunting buddies yacking and you learn more than you want to know
