[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 855818, member: 2567"] Anyone who hasn't lost a big game animal due to a bad shot, either doesn't really hunt, doesn't remember or is a lier. I have had my share and each time it has happened, I learned something. One thing I will pass on is just because you make a shot and the animal drops in it's tracks and looks lights out, chamber another shell and get the crosshairs back on it ready for a follow up shot. One of the biggest mulies I have ever shot got away because I thought he was done and lo and behold he jumped back up and ran off, got missed by two other hunters and probably died a slow painful death missing half of his face. Had I been prepared, I could have easily made a quick follow up shot. [/QUOTE]
