    I think too some extent, a high quality shotgun, and maybe a similar grade of rifle are wasted on the inexperienced. Purely because they dont have the experience to recognise the small things or...

    When the processor is paying good money for goats it’s up to $5/kg for head/ upper neck shot and $2 maybe $2:50/kg body shot so you soon learn to take head/neck shots. Same rules for venison just...
