[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1021264, member: 64108"] Sorry but you missed just in front of his nose ?? From the vitals it's at LEAST 3 feet and you were adjusting for wind. If the wind was inconsistent then what made you think the next shot would be on ? You missed the wind call by better than full value 20mph minimum. I am a bit surprised but you paid for the hunt and you're not going to get anything if you don't shoot at it. Maybe switch to an AR platform. Shooting an elk and shooting at an elk are different things. It's easy to Monday quarterback it from a keyboard but I have passed on shots for various reasons. I've taken several animals that had horrible wounds and some with scars. Glad this didn't turn out that way. Stuff to think about I guess. [/QUOTE]
