    Hi there

    For shots taken inside of 50m (standing, no support) I'll pretty much head shoot most animals 90% of the time, but if required I'll quickly move my aim to any kill zone that will work for the situation.

    For shots 50m and beyond (standing, no support) I tend to just shoulder shoot (double lung shot in line with front leg and up high) most animals, this tend to drop them on the spot!

    I tend not to actually think about my shots too much, it just seems to happen on a subconscious level. I guess I’ve been doing it so long now its second nature.
