Deer Hunting Shot Placement
When you shoot at a dove with a shotgun, you try to hit the whole critter... but when you're shooting at a deer or any other big game animal, you really need to place your shot properly in order to ensure a clean, humane kill. You should also shoot where the kill zone is the largest - that way, if you should miss the spot, you have still put your bullet (or arrow) into a kill zone. I've spent a lot of time in the woods hunting and learning, and I believe this to be true: Most of the time, the most important piece of my entire deer hunting experience is where I place my shots.

Think about that - going fishing every day, no matter what the weather, no matter how sick, no matter where you travel. My first seven tries failed. Something - a trip out of the US, an operation on my hand, something, made me miss days. But 2009 was different!
