Not sure about the hardest shot, but this is the luckiest shot I ever had.
It was pouring rain and I had my trusty Rem 1100 with a slug barrel and open rifle sights. I was in my tree stand about 20 ft. off of the ground and I was standing up because I didn't have a rain suit and was trying to stay as dry as possible. I was a little hung over and didn't get much sleep the night before (I was about 25 at the time). I kind of was leaning against the tree and was dozing off a little and had my eyes shut. Someone shot down in the creek bottom a couple of hundred yards away, so I opened my eyes and grabbed the gun. I looked to my left, in the direction of the shot, and there was a doe about 30 yards away and running full tilt almost directly towards me. I pulled the gun up and shot her when she was about 10 yards away. Dropped her in her tracks. I hit her in the eye socket. The whole thing took about 2 1/2 seconds.
