Yep, if that hasn't happened to you, it just means you haven't turkey hunted very long! I went to a red dot several years ago, but, guess what, it is still possible to miss. I did so last spring. Missed a bird in the wide open at about 20 yards. I got in too big a hurry and jerked the trigger. It wasn't all bad, though, because I got to hunt another 9 days or so before filling my second tag the next to last day of the season.  :)

Makes me want to go in the Morning !!!! Also makes me want to really concentrate on the little red dot and the White Head !!! Great video thanks for posting it .
All things work together for good !!!

El Pavo Grande

Nice video!!!  Thanks for sharing.  Experienced that first hand more than I would like to admit.  Missed two on two different set ups within a couple hours of each other one morning.

Gold Spur

Yep, it's happened to me a couple of times. That's why I bought a FFII.
Woo Pig Sooie!!!

Yep a red dot will prevent that from happening.  You may still miss but it won't be because you raised your head.

Been there.  Done that.  Got the t-shirt.  Bought a red dot.   ;D

Been there done that ONCE! I missed at 8 yards and then again at 20 or so and then twice more when he flew off.

I will probably miss again but I remember that miss every time I have a tom coming in and it helps me to go through the solid cheek weld, bead on waddles, and squeeze gently routine.
