And I have had it happen once with two deer as I approached a clearing in the Longwoods. I guess the sad truth is I am only a very average hunter who loves the adventure of exploring new areas. I like to plan things out and research my gear and pack purposefully for a trip - so kinda a bit OCD. For me to shoot 3 deer when I only wanted one (and I am definitely a meat hunter!) would be firstly embarrassing, and secondly I know my capabilities and only the meat effectively from one animal would be making the trip home. Some people like Tasman can have a laugh at themselves and some can’t - most times I am in the second camp.

Good on ya mate, that makes more sense. Nothing wrong with being an average hunter, I'm included in that group!
I've seen others on YT make that same mistake and can certainly see how he did it with all those deer scattering and the visible adrenalin rush he was experiencing. Was good to see him push himself to get it all out when others would have just rolled it down the hill minus backsteaks.
