i get the point that its thrilling to make that precise shot at long distance,,What about when there is a crossing wind near the animal,you did not read?..you will have a not so satisfying miss or worse, a wound.
Where you are living maybe there are so many coyotes in every bush,,and your shooting skills are that tuned,,to get fancy.
Around here its about making the kill,educating as few coyotes as possible and trying to represent predator hunting in a good way....................X
Hey coyotex:
I've certainly had my share of poor shot results in my time. I don't know about the "fancy" part, I simply enjoy the "challenge" of making a precise shot in typical AZ conditions. If you go back to my initial post, you will see that I clearly stated I was not criticizing anyone and acknowledged that every hunter has a right to pursue game animals in their own way. Why is it that some folks get their dander up when someone suggests they consider another way of doing things.
