Bunch of damned hacks using optics anyhow. Real hunters don’t need sights. Shoot, Fred Bear managed to get after it
I killed my biggest buck with an old Ted Williams pump shotgun. No sights. just a bead on the barrel. Winchester rifled slug. 195 lb. dressed 10 point.
That’s about how everyone did it back before scope and rifle sights were prevalent back when I was a kid. The old bead was a pretty good sight if the gun threw a slug well.
Yep. Seen a lot of deer killed with bird guns and slugs when I was a kid. Lived close to the rifle/shotgun zone border and hunted both zones. Common to see hunters toting slug loaded bird guns in both areas. That old Ted Williams did throw slugs good.
