Last time my Dad tail shot one I told him if he did it again he would be cleaning it. (Joke LOL) My dad is closing in on 80 I would clean it and rib him about it with him laughing at me from the tail gait of truck. We still talk and laugh about that one.
Agreed!
It's never really a pleasent process, but a gut shot (or now a tail shot) is even worse.
The only thing worse is rabbits. My hands stink for 3 days.

Shot one square in the chest once. I thought is was going to be a mess inside, but wasn't too bad. Of course the chest slowed the boolit down quite a bit before it got into the guts. A full power 30-06 probably would have been a different story. Found the boolit about 3 feet deep in the deer. Did you recover your boolit? How far did it run?
