You couldn't be more wrong ,I've done so many I couldn't even attempt to guess how many and that's not me being chest out bragging ,,,where did I mention "blasting anything" ...I use a 22 only,...I own a shotty ,wouldn't dream of using it ,I've culled for mates with foxhounds, greyhound men and failed dogs and sick dogs ,all done in a very professional,matter of fact ,no drama involved...there's very little reaction from an animal done right other than it collapsing to the floor and blood loss,...if your refering to the back of the head comment ,that was said in jest and just a hint of sarcasm
