That’s why shotguns were made...For shooting fast flying, zig-zagging, feathered and small fur targets. I’m not a bad shotgunner. I was taught from the start to shoot with both eyes open...Which I do with pistols, ironsights and especially when I’m shooting pdogs and such behind a scope for hours at a time...

I always lose the big fur animals in my scope at a distance when it’s running past/out of my FOV in my scope...With a deer, it’s the “bounce-bounce-bounce” that is difficult for me to follow and time the shot.

As I said earlier, I don’t take this shot. But, I still try and follow the animal through my scope and I’m amazed at how some guys can consistently dump a coyote at 200 plus yards at a full run. I don’t consider this “snap” shooting. It’s a skill some have for doing it from years of practicing on coyotes maybe. 😎
