    Joe's point of anticipating where shots went based on feel is very good, shooting groups with the zoom set so can't see impacts, theories where they went based on shot feel, then checking is a good practice drill. When shooting at an animal/target that doesn't have anything around it to tell you where the shot fell will see you relying on that feel and knowing if your shot was bad or need to adjust dope
    Moa Hunter, Micky Duck and Fatberg like this.
