Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting DRT is over rated

I like DRT, but am cool w DOT,
Usually shoot front shoulders, but will take neck shots.

Only critters I shoot in the head are yotes or chucks, and even then really prefer not to.

Uglying up a critter doesn't sit well with me.
But I'm the same guy that sees deer stacked like wood at a processor/check in and thinks it a bit disrespectful.

Don't care what others do, that stuff just aint the way I do it.

Bulged eyeballs............hell I won't even shoot squirrels in the head.

I had eye surgery as a kid so maybe I'm a bit squeamish LOL.

Here we go again.






Why not REAR shoulders?

It depends on what side of the ridge the deer is facing. If it's going towards the road, not a problem. Let it run and hopefully roll as close to an easy pickup as possible. When it's looking to run the other way, blow up both shoulders. Dragging one up the ridge is filthy bad.
