[QUOTE="bwaites, post: 341408, member: 8733"] I guess the biggest problem I have with calling any of these shots "lucky" is the preparation and skill involved. Was it luck when Shawn Carlock dumped his deer at 1166 yards on the second shot? Was it luck when Travis Reggear dropped his at 1931 yards? Both of those were done with rifles with considerably less downrange power than the .50 used by the Canadians. Please show me how to tell the difference between "luck" and the intersection of opportunity and preparation. Bill [/QUOTE]
