On my first experience possum shooting as a boy I was climbing a tree to recover a possum a family friend had shot. When I was near the possum I heard another shot.
"It moved" was the excuse. Back then I thought it was funny (after I'd recovered from the shock), and there was no questioning the guy who had pseudo hero status with me.
Looking back as an adult parent, FAL holder and hunter, I am appalled. He was a trusted adult. If my parents had known about that....
Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.
