FOXHUNTER 5,021 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Its all a matter of opinions lads Too true mate! Each shot must be judged on its merits , take the best option available to you at that time!!! Quote Link to post
Guest Dave Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Heres a couple of pics of deer that might help you make a more informed decision on whare shot placement is best for you and your abilities. Dave Quote Link to post

Dave dave the exact name of the dvd is shot placement & deer reaction by sh productions i got it from www. cabelas.com (in the states) it has over 128 mins of good action some is bow hunting but is stil quite informative (i dont know if it can be purchaced in the uk or not Quote Link to post
Guest Dave Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Just watched the shot placement and dear reaction video thanks to fox shot. It makes interesting watching and I woud recomend it to all. one point is that the americans safety such as muzzle awareness is not as good as most in the UK and they will take shots that most brits would pass on unless it was in the context of puting an injured beast out of its misery. That said highly recomended. Dave Quote Link to post

Guest foxkiller Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 You should be in bed at this time of night at your age cramp my self i would go for a good heart shot but it all depends on the range of the shot 80yds is ok for a neck shot but say 150 then it would have to be a heart n lung shot Quote Link to post
pegandgun 52 Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Excellent advice foxkiller,i would totaly agree with you on that Quote Link to post
Guest great white hunter Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 Neck if possible , if not a high lung shot does the job I wish i could do that i couldnt hit a cows arse with a shuvel! these days Quote Link to post

Dave Your right Dave, we are not as safe as we should be and I've taken some shots I shouldn't, but I'm sure you haven't seen some of the things I have out of American shooters, some I will not hunt around anymore. It's hard but with years of trying I've finally got were I can pass on a buck as long as the racks is not too big then I'm like a kid again and down he must go, some way, some how, its almost like you will never get another chance, and believe me, if he's big you will not. All in all, I haven't lost too many deer in all my years of hunting and most of the ones I have seem to have been sure hits in the vitals. Quote Link to post
