Northern Bound - A Canadian Whitetail Rifle Hunt 

East Texan. Amen to your comment. I've been hunting whitetails for over 40 years and have shot dozens directly through the front shoulders with a 300 win mag ,165 grain Barnes vortx. None of the deer took even one step.

@@jamesbernardin4052 Thanks. I guess we all learn to shoot behind the shoulder when we were kids and that's probably still true today. It's a large target but a jerked trigger will almost invariably result in losing a gut shot deer. From what I've seen on RU-vid videos over the last few years, I don't know how anyone ever kills a deer with the degree of buck fever I see overtake these guys filming their hunts. Supposedly seasoned hunters panting like a freshman female cheerleader on a first date with the Senior QB. Just ridiculous. And of course there are always the guys who scold me about wasting all that meat from front shoulder shots. I guess I didn't realize how poor us hunters are if we quibble over a few ounces of meat that probably was gonna be ground into hamburger anyway. I haven't had to look for a deer or hog since 2000 when I finally learned (by accident) to center that front shoulder. Course here in Texas we probably hunt a lot differently than most. Our hunting is mostly stand hunting over bait, so having the time to shoot makes a lot of difference than, say, snap shooting at deer in the thickets up north.

I agree. But it’s not a free-for-all. It’s bad enough that sustenance “ sustenance“ hunters get to have a zero bag limit. If everybody just went out and shot whatever they wanted, there wouldn’t be shit left to shoot year after year.

thinking same thing lol

If this is Alberta - it is not required.

Mostly what I thought they could be hunting on a reserve though I can't find any info

Probably because he had his barrel resting on the shooting stick instead of resting his stock on the shooting stick. Can lose a lot of accuracy doing that.

In Canada like they said

Did you ever find out what kind of blind that was
