Nice buck Brian and welcome on the Forum.

Agree,
Welcome Brian..
As the distances seem relatively close there, many just use open sights?? Just curious..
Nice job.., congrats

Ripp,
While the shots here are usually less than about 125 yards, most folks have a scope on their rifles. Most of our hunting is done from tree stands or sitting on the ground, not pushing the deer in front of us. With a scope, it's much easier to make a good shot thru the trees at a deer that's usually walking.
The terrain around here isn't conducive to deer drives, but when I lived in Ohio we did them. In that case, most of us had open sights, on shotguns.
Thank you for the info Brian
funny thing, all the drives I have done and deer we have hunted, have never used a shotgun to take one..did so in Zimbabwe on an impala once..but never a deer..
Congrats..sounds like a lot of fun.. and good times with friends, a very important component at times overlooked from the outside..
