    That's the thing - in thick bush it's a million to one it could hit another hunter not far away before the tree but it could happen

    Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

    You could argue you have a tree as a back stop but the projectile its deflected left/right on contact. I've read projectiles have done 90 degree turns when hitting a deer bone and travelled the length of the deer. Rare but does occur.

    Its shows though that you are thinking along the right lines of safe shooting lanes, and putting safety first above dropping a deer which is good to see.
