I also watched that show last night and the coues buck was totally skylined! I mean, if that bullet missed, it was flying off into never-never-land at least 4-5 miles distance. Nobody can use binoculars and see another person 5 miles away! I agree with the mantra here that it's "better to be safe than sorry"! People do get killed from bullets falling from the sky from miles away.
Thank you Hunter_59 I agree with you completely
I didn't get to see the show...
Was the buck on a ridge top with the shot being level or even downhill... or was it a shot that had a good uphill grade to it?
Like the man said nothing behind the buck but air pure uphill shot
