[QUOTE="Nomosendero, post: 95924, member: 3622"] Birdman I think the spelling in English is contradiction. I would bet that you knew that, but in haste you made a human error. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] So far, the mistakes that I have made with gun or bow have been shots taken at close range due to brush or other factors unnoticed until the shot was made, & I try very hard to notice anything that will or could alter my shot. I believe that if you shoot Deer, Hogs & other Big Game Animals that number well into 3 digits as I & others on this forum have, you will make a mistake or two along the way. Should I turn down any shot at close range now because I have made these errors in the past? I don't think so, but I can & did learn from them. I have not missed any Big Game at long range yet, but I have not shot near as many animals at long range as some members of this forum. If I get the chance to shoot alot of Big Game at long range, no doubt mistakes/errors in judgement will occur. Our responsibility is to always strive not to make these mistakes & to enjoy our sport. The decisions that we make in the field are sometimes quick decisions as was Kirby's in this case. Kirby can & I am sure will speak for himself & no doubt he has thought about this & what to do next time. I am glad he shared this with us because it gives us a chance to think about it also. I will walk a wide path around those who act like everything they do in the field goes according to plan. Does everything that you do at work or with your family go perfect? [/QUOTE]
