I just got done reading an article in the most recent Extreme elk and a guy shot a bull in the chest while he was directly facing him. Then I watched a episode of Meat Eater and he took a head on brisket shot. I was just wondering what you guys think of these kind of shots. It seems to me to be getting more and more popular in the hunting community.
Now me I'm not okay with it, in extreme elk the guy talks about how he's released hundred's of arrows preparing for this moment. I personally don't care how much you shoot, there's just to many things that could go wrong. If your a hair to the left or right I fill you'll be putting that animal in a lot of unnecessary pain and may not find him after the shot. Then on meat eater he did the same thing with a Moose and it ended up taking 3-4 shots to finally kill the animal.
In both instances it took a while for the animal to die, the Elk in extreme elk was leaving a very little blood trail causing them to almost not find the animal and on meat eater the bull also took a long time to die. I guess I'm just a little baffled why people would be okay with taking these shots. Is there something I'm missing?
At the end of the episode on Meat Eater I no Steven Rinella said he wouldn't ever take that shot again, but I do no there is a lot of other people that will.
