Head shot thread

I need to do a better job showing my egyptian geese headshots as they, lately it's been mostly goose removal and not there's many iguanas around.

.177 16gr griffins going 970fps 9yds and 22.7yds

Excellent shooting! I guess quite a few survived the cold!
Not cold enough down here, just annoyingly chilly. Not cold enough for iguanas to fall out, but also to chilly and breezy for the iguana to come out of hiding 😒
Headshot's for the win!! How do those things react to vital shots...I'm guessing if you do vitals you'd want to go through the shoulder to lock them down, or at least try
For vital shots you want high expanding .22 at really good power or .25-.30 so they can bleed out and die quick.

Got these guys on Friday with the U2 .177 slinging 16gr Griffin slugs at 970fps, all head shots, one of which needed a second shot as the initial shot was a bit high. All between 35-55yds

Excellent shooting slinging those laser guided ice picks into those green dinos CPU's! Great pic!

My dog chased this one off a few nights ago and I was worried she was injured the noise that came from the dark yard. Luckily she was unscathed. So I turned the notifications on. He spooked off yesterday night before I got a shot, not so lucky this evening.
