[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1532668, member: 30902"] For most people even with a scoped rifle headshots are far too difficult at that range. It's usually difficult to get a deer to hold their head still long enough to get a good headshot anyhow. Like most of us over 40 it's probably time you admit your eyes are aging and get a good scope or stick to much closer ranges. You can however if your eyes are still decent make accurate heart/lung shots with open sights by aiming just behind a line from the elbow to the back of the shoulder blade. Rarely will an animal run more than 50-100yds max with a good shot placed there with a good bullet that gives you a decent exit wound to expedite rapid blood loss. [/QUOTE]
