    When I’m doing the doe hunt on Vancouver island it’s always head shots with 12 gauge buckshot and full choke

    Neck shots within 30 yards using buckshot for me. After many deer down, I don’t trust buckshot to give me a decent enough blood trail in the thick bush. Maybe a different story if I were hunting some open farmland. Drop em in their tracks instead, quickest death I can deliver.

    I think it's time to talk about Poo, this is getting old! Poo never gets old, we got the double twister with a DQ flip or the three coiler, the topic is endless! K

    Good on you for being honest.
    Same happened to me once, but was lucky that the buck just moved behind a hump and all I had to do was run 30 yards and fire again.
    But, I wont do it again either after that.

    Any shot is a great shot, when it goes as planned.
    But, they don't always go as planned!
    And it's admitting what happens when they don't go as planned so others can at least consider things they may not have thought of.
    That goes for any shot, head shot or boiler room.
    Breath and squeeze and get out there and practice some shooting when ever possible.

    one thing I like to do that goes against what some people will say is, while in the field, with nothing in the tube, I look for safe objects to shoulder and take aim at with intent to practice acquiring and steadying on a target. it quickly helps to show if you are getting to out of breath (going too fast) or if you had too many morning coffees.
