[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1640611, member: 75451"] On a running deer, 150 yards is getting into “long range”! If you have a relatively smooth grade, then follow through would be my suggestion, which would probably be good for open country hunting. For timber/brush country, your shots would be more similar to shooting at a “flushed” Woodcock! Nothing can replicate that.....except a “flushed” Woodcock! Perhaps, a steep, rough downhill, at closer range with the tire could somewhat simulate a running deer in brush! Shooting at a running “cat” squirrel is another form of good training. Trying to predict when he “pauses” near the end of a limb to make his jump, could help train you on a deer as he makes his run. The trick would be to be looking ahead in the deers flightpath! No leading and follow through here, just a “snap” shot at the pause....follow through if the deer is airborne! No matter the scenario, a challenge to be sure! memtb [/QUOTE]
