Good Vids - showing hunting and not just shooting.
1st one I watched showed first stalk - fired at sitting Hind and hit a vine.
Same experience for me 2 hours ago - getting a little annoyed with my performance with the .223 - bastard of a caliber for deflecting and its now happened 3 x in a row :-(

The key to bush stalking is to first get into bush that is holding Deer.
Don't waste time stalking through terrain that is empty - move freely and fast until you see fresh sign then monitor wind and start acting like a cat on a bird.
Move slow and short distances and listen - listen.
The job is 90% done if you locate them b4 they locate you - unless you hit brush/vines etc like me
