Fight or flight is real. Dude tried to fight for his life. Sad situation indeed.

I guess we don't have many hunters on here. Never had a deer run off after being shot? Sometimes it all depends where they are shot.

And yes, adrenaline definitely helps.

This is why you shoot off the kneecap first... They will fall down to one knee then you shoot out the other one and they can't run at you.

You'd think that buckshot at the range of a few feet at the most to the chest would drop somebody immediately.

Makes me think that a semiautomatic shotgun would be the best choice for a defense weapon because you could shoot multiple rounds with one hand if you are fighting a guy off.

I’ve never shot a deer from 1 inch away. Have you?

his dad supposedly was and I guess he blamed his mom for not stopping it. He was a pretty messed up dude from an early age though. Real anger problems and would constantly get in fights at school.

I've seen big bucks run +150 yds after taking a double lung shot with high powered rifles (.270, 30-06, 7mm mag) Then after you find the deer you see a huge arse exit wound and wonder how it even manage to leave the food plot. Adrenaline is a crazy thing.

I've read a lot about how 12 gauge loaded with buckshot will end situations quickly at distances further than point blank, but if Amhaud had been able to get control of the gun Travis could have wound up dead too.


My favorite shooting instructor always bangs home the importance of keeping distance between you and someone accosting you by saying "What do people do after you shoot them? They usually keep doing whatever they were doing before you shot them, at least for a little while."

Hollywood's depiction of how people react to being shot isn't the least bit real. When people are fighting for their lives, they're not fricking around and will not stop until they are dead.

If I've learned anything playing Resident Evil, it's that someone charging you will just keep coming right through a shotgun to the chest.

You gotta aim for the leg or or arm to stagger them, then you can finish them off, preferably with a physical attack that does more damage than any gun you are holding.

This should be police training 101.

That damn jogger shouldn't have instigated this situation with these "real" men.He should have known better than to start this crap.

That badass baw with a shotgun and dude with a rifle were just too tough for him.He should have known these manly butt kickers were way too much for him to handle.He shouldn't have provoked them.

It's his own fault.

Was he from W. Feliciana? If so, I have a buddy that was friends with him at the time & was with him that day. Said he had no clue what he was going home to do
