I've let deer go because 50 50 shots arnt my thing and the whole time I'm identifing my target.its almost as if your implying that people who neck or head shoot arnt identifying there target??.I suggest you try a bit more hunting in the bush to really know what your talking about

bloody shit phone

I wasn't going to keep replying but this bit keeps bugging me.

I agree on it's the movement but I feel I haven't said what I mean properly (I am terrible at explaining things in writing)

I think it was shooting at movement like you said, but I was thinking of reasons why the guy shot at movement. And one of the reasons I think he may have shot at movement could be because through his eyes he saw a deers neck and being experienced enough to know he can drill a deer in the neck he just shot at it. Where as someone who doesn't care for neck shots and so on may wait for the shoulder to show and then find out its a person that walks into clear view

Still boils down to not identifying your target though

Hope I made it clearer that time
