So I have a hunting buddy who wounded 2 deer with me yesterday and need some suggestions to help him. Yesterday we had 2 bucks walk in on us and to make a long story short he winged the first one and hit the second with a center mass gut shot. I ended up taking the winged deer with my rifle and finishing the second off with a revolver because it just laid down. Both shots when taken were only 45 yards with a 30-06 zeroed at 100. Last year he had a bad shot at a similar distance that resulted in a lost deer. He is not a tall guy and I think recoil may be a contributing factor but the irony is he only bench shoots and hes a decent shot there. He rolls his own ammo and it is quality so I think that's a non-issue. Deer season is over on the 5th so hes done for the next 10 months. Any ideas as to ways to practice shooting or give him an accuracy goal to improve his shooting before he heads out again?
