    What happened to my blood trails?

    I shot two does so far this season and neither one of them left much of a blood trail. I had to rely on watching them drop. I shot a perfect double lung shot on a small doe in a corn field, ran only a few yards. I looked for a blood trail just because I can and found nothing where I shot her...

    Just Curious....... I know you can be accurate to 75 yards with a riffled slug in a 12 guage shotgun. some people farther I guess:rolleyes: but... If I were to stand on level ground and fire a shotgun straight ahead, how far would the bullet travel? If the bullet hits and...
