We've got a thread about your longest shot and one about your closest shot. This one is about your hardest shot.
What's the hardest shot you've ever made? What did you do to prepare for it? What were you thinking as you executed it?
Mine was offhand on a bull Roosevelt elk at 110 yards after my guide and I had jogged several hundred yards down a logging road to get in position for a shot before last light.
My preparation was months of practice making fast offhand shots from 50 to 100 yards. As we approached the place where I had planned to shoot from, I focused on breathing deeply to get more oxygenated blood moving and lowering my heart rate. From there, I focused on getting the safety off smoothly and getting a good trigger press.
How did it go for you?
