Experience is your greatest asset towards preventing wounded or lost game - simply because your shoot/don't shoot decision making has been more finely honed. The bang flops are great ego builders, but unfortunately they are poor instructors. You can do everything wrong and still have a bang flop, but conversely you can do everything right and still wound an animal.

Well said.:)

This is perfect...

Bullet placement can become far too complicated in the mind of an inexperienced hunter, whereas the experienced hunter does not even consciously think about it. This is not the same as concentrating on the mechanics of the shot - a failure in which is the down fall of many hunters. Instant stops resulting from brain or CNS damage have limited application for non-dangerous game, and a lung shot will normally get the job done quite nicely. The target must be thought of in 3 dimensional terms - not so much where the bullet strikes, but where the bullet track will compromise the target's ability to get oxigenated blood to it's brain - resulting in a quick and humane death.

Hey Boomer what kind of majic MO-JO juice did you get into on your Safari.... you are one smart dude all of a sudden.;)
