First deer with my shorty USH

[ccoorreeyy]

I shot a 100lb doe here in Georgia today with my shorty USH.  It was the first deer I had shot with a slug gun.  It realy suprised me that the slug did not pass through.  I had estamated the range to be 150yds but pacing it off it was only 119yds.  I hit a little high (thought it was 30yds farther) but would have thought it would have went all the way through.  I had only shot deer with rifles up to this point.  I was using Lightfield Elite 3" slugs.  The deer dropped dead in its tracks witch is good great but if it had not fell right there I don't think it would have left a good blood trail.  I'm gona do a little more range shooting and shoot one more doe before I head to Ill. next week. Maybe that 300lb monster buck i'm after will drop dead in its tracks to.

I've killed many a deer with lightfield hybred 2 3/4 " slugs-no exit wounds usually,but like you said they usually drop dead in their tracks-I got the new ush from you today-really great,will let you know range results when I get the scope mounted-pm me if you get a chance-I have a bar & grill not far from pike county,maybe we can hook-up-thanks again,

What no pics??? 

 I generally see conventional styled slugs stay inside deer unless shot at very close range. Generally, the newer premium saboted bullets will give you pass thru's. That a big hunk of soft lead is not going to penetrate that deep, especially at such a range.

Congrats on the deer!!!
