[QUOTE="Str8shooterTX, post: 1422719, member: 82571"] Have I ever lost a squirrel, duck or turkey in my lifetime? Of Course. As a boy of 12 I once chopped down a old dead tree about 2 feet in diam with an ax to get a squirrel I had made a poor shot on in northern Wis. using a pellet gun(old Crossman 110 pump action, scoped I might add)as a way of explaining the mentality I have always had and was raised with. I always try everything I can do to make the "perfect" shot. I have passed on wayyyyyyy more animals then I have pulled the trigger or pulled the arrow release or let the arrow slide under my leather gloved fingers over 40 years of hunting. (going back to my first duck with a slingshot at 8. I swam for a very long way in cold water two bring him home to dad. LOL (*** whooping ensued with lesson learned) To this day I have never lost a deer, bear, elk to a poor shot. Maybe that is luck, maybe that is because even out to my personal longest shot of 750 on a deer, I am forever vigilant to take the best shot. Maybe even though I could never count the total deer, hogs, elk, bear etc. It is far harder to get it on film. I am not hunting while filming trying to get "the shot". It is easier for me. But If filming for a show I hold you to a higher standard then me and if you take the **** show shot you know that was bad, then you have a duty to face the fall out. i would do the same in my job if I f'd up. And in 49 years of life that is something I hold dear. Side note, yotes, hogs and other pest control animals are not applicable to this.:eek: [/QUOTE]
