Thread: 2 STAGS IN ONE WEEK

Just watched your video of your first deer kill and read the comments below. Bloody lucky that you found that first deer and managed to put it out of it's misery. You haven't learnt any thing from that have you? I myself would have been bloody embarrassed about the shot and would have never posted it.
I think Brads advise is pretty good, stay on the couch mate and stop taking pop shots at deer where the chances off killing it quickly are almost zero or at least don't brag about it and then wonder why every one is shooting you down.

Possum shooter.......I can see the photos,can you reference for me where the "video" is,.....for some reason,not seeing the link on this thread...thanks in advance...

It is great that you are out there doing it and learning as you go.

But the plea of many on here(including me) to have greater respect for your quarry should not be regarded as harsh criticism or jealousy. They are trying to help you become a hunter instead of a spray and pray you hit something shooter.

I have been there and done that, not proud of it but learned from it.Most experienced hunters on here have also done that(taken shots outside their skill level)

The key point is to recognize you are not as good as you thought you were and practice shooting and refrain from shooting if not 95% confident of a first round clean kill.

Congrats on your Stags.
