I called one in for a 9yo friend and he shot about 20 yds. The bird started running in circles and he had to shoot again. The first shot busted up one of his legs. That one didn't look crippled and my friends bird ran in much tighter circles.

Thanks for doing that.  Let us know if you get a response.

Crucify him if you want, but I had a similar thing happen to me once.  howbeit didn't start at at 10 yards. 

I called in two birds and then I missed a one of them at 30-35, it happens, I got a what I thought was a decent second shot as he ran for cover, missed that time t0o.  Then I noticed the other bird was headed straight toward me at 15 yards so with the last shell I knocked him down only to watch him get up and stagger around.  I then dug out a 4th shell loaded the 870 and aimed.  Just as I pulled the trigger he stumbled and fell.  At 15 yards my grapefruit sized pattern went high, then he got back up and began the drunk stagger routine again.  I had to get shell #5 and this time I made it count.  Just glad it wasn't heavy shot ($$$).

I wouldn't be surprised if this happens a lot more often with today's tight shooting chokes and loads.  I'll admit to it happening to me, too.  I no longer like taking followup shots unless he's out 30 yards or farther.

I wouldn't tell or show that in public. The worst one I saw was aired on a hunting show. 3 guys 2 are camera men. Shooter wakes up and shoots a gobbler and then runs after it without his single shot  shotgun. Comes back latter with the bird by the neck,throws it down and goes into a 20 min. hero speach for the camera. Bird gets up and runs off and is not recovered. They said the shooter went to town and bought a semi auto.

Sad.....very disrespectful to the critter. I'm sorry I watched it.

We all make mistakes.Sooner or later we miss.that is not a crime. The crime is treating the footage like it was from funniest home videos or something.Nothing funny about it.
