I can’t think of any of mine but, will give you two that I have witnessed.

My dad. Off hand shot down an abandoned rail road grade on a big (170 lb) doe on a fast trot angling away. Hammered her with his 280 Rem M700 Mountain Rifle with 145 grain Speers. She took one step after the shot and nose dived. My dad is 6’4” and it was a distance of 245 of his paces. My pace count is 76 to 100 yards at 6’2”. Thinking that was a pretty good shot with some luck ......or not.

My buddy loosened an arrow at a smallish buck in an overgrown apple orchard that was running away. He managed to pick a small hole in all the branches and drilled it in the back of the head. All with an American Archery Bobcat bow, no rest,no sights and mismatched arrows. Some luck involved? Yes but,that’s what they were trying to do.


Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
