    completely disagree here although a thermal handheld for spotting "potential" targets and a night vision for 100% identifying and shooting are far safer combo

    Yes you could identify that deer out in the open with a thermal aswell
    However if the deer was semi in the bush you will only see blobs of heat in a thermal (which “could be anything “) with a nv you can probably identify it if say just it’s head was visible
    as always if in doubt do not pull the trigger it's better to no meat than causing a tragedy like this
