When and with what gun? Ive never been able to. And anyway landing 2 head shots isnt an esy thing to do. Especially when the droid will be moving and shooting back. However just one shot with the wrist rocket and the clone dies.
In one of those books, it said how droids are pretty much weapons themselves, and are accurate with their blaster bolts. The SBD is incased in heavy armor, protecting it, but restricting it's manuverability. The clone troopers can think for themselves, and are more agile and faster, and can recover their balance better. However, they can be more easily harmed (e.g bits of sharp rock) than the SBD, who can be harmed by things that won't hurt a clone very much (e.g during the Defense of Kamino, an ARC trooper used a electric grenade to shut off the battle droids).

The droid just has to fire a wrist rocket and it bye bye clone. So I say the droid would win.
Can easily be dodged by a roll, and it does not create a huge splash damage either. It's just for the clone to open fire and throw himself to the ground and the SBD is dead. Common, we see Obi-Wan barley even trying to deflect the SBD's shots in ROTS and it dies after the first shot is deflected....
Droids suck. they are stuipid!
clones are superior to droids because they are more intelligent, they are human and droids just get told where to go and when to fire, like Qui Gon said "the ability to speak does not make you intelligent".
Plus they need a leader to control them and a clone can adapt to the mission if the command is killed. Droids also need the main controll ship to function, if thats taken out then they are dead.
Yeah a droid can fire a rocket, but only a SBD or a rocket trooper and the clones have arc troopers which makes it equal. Even if the droid fired a rocket the clone could just roll out of the way or jump over it.
I've been able to take out a droid with two clone pistol shots and what the hell was the droid doing when i was owning it, SHOTING AND MOVING!
A clone is trained to exploit the SBD's weakness, the armour can survive shots but the clone will know where to hit it for an easy kill and the droid would just stand there and fire anywhere at the clone.
