[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1039509, member: 30902"] Shooting a moving target is just not the kind of thing that many in this country have experience with at all. To do so well requires a tremendous amount if practice ON moving targets. Europeans on the other hand grow up on it and practice the skill pretty much every time they are in the field because so much of their big game hunting is done as "driven hunts". Of course they aren't doing it at long range. The nature of my hunting, primarily predator and varmint hunting is done on moving critters but like many Europeans I grew up on it. With practice you develop a feel for it but even with as much practice as I have at it I simply will not take a shot at a moving game animal at long range unless as you point to we're trying to put a stopper on a wounded animal. If we all stick to the principle of "Respect the Game and know the limits of your abilities" we have very few problems. [/QUOTE]
