[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2344900, member: 118816"] As many of you may well have figured out I am not what you consider a long range person. Trying to hit a deer sized target in a deadly zone is not something to be considered lightly. Conversely, you do what you need to do in the military to accomplish the mission. To me accomplishing the mission is hitting the target and making sure that the target does not shoot back. No deer, elk, moose or bear is ever going to shoot back but that is not to diminish the fact that they can in fact take you out of the picture. Many a hunter has been taken out so to speak by the game they are hunting from the whitetail to the Alaskan Brown or Kodiak bear. Sometimes man/woman loses the fight for supremacy and the animals in their own habitat win. So be it, Mankind is not necessarily the supreme being when going against the animal kingdom. Don't ever think that you cannot be taken out by a simple animal that you re hunting. History is filled with stories of professional hunters that never made it back from the hunt. Fortunately there are few north american animals that are vicious enough to take out a hunter. Big bears are the exception. Big bears will kill you and have you for dessert. [/QUOTE]
