[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2998531, member: 75451"] I fully understand! At just hitting 71, distance is "not" the only determining factor regarding if the shot is taken! A few years ago, I passed on a relatively easy (theoretically speaking) shot on an elk @ just under 600. But……it was late evening, the elk closely surrounded by pretty dense timber/brush, and in an area with a good strong grizzly population. I passed on the shot, , rather than risk wounding an elk and being forced to track/recover an elk after dark! Yep….I'm a wuss! 😉 Oh and, the wounded elk running downhill would have been a plus for my situation! 😁 memtb [/QUOTE]
