[QUOTE="North Idaho Hunter, post: 1845512, member: 73428"] In All my years of witnessing and taking many game animals, an immediate drop of an animal @ impact doesn’t send a warm fuzzy feeling for me. I’ve seen way too many shoulder shots turn into a day of tracking! Guys take a shot, animal drops immediately - they’re up high fiving and congratulating each other - while the animal is most definitely not dead. in recent years friends have started to video their hunts - they have to edit me out after the high shoulder shot because I’m hollerin’ in the background - get back on him, he’s gonna get back up! 😆 don’t get me wrong, the most dramatic reactions from animals that I’ve taken have been shoulder shots, however - In a situation where permitted, a lung shot for me every time!
