… It's the biggest reason why a rifle with rapid repeat fire capabilities is preferred for still hunting. If you're doing it right, you should be spotting most of the deer before they see you. If you're mostly seeing tails, you know you're doing it wrong. Most of your shots should not be hurried or at running deer. The truth is, most guys absolutely suck at still hunting. They move too fast, make too much noise, don't pay mind to wind direction, stop in the open to look around ...
Absolutely! And, if a still hunter pauses every few steps, lingering to look and listen for a bit, a one-shooter should really be enough gun.
