You also have to pay for taking a shot and missing
Charlie,
I have never heard of this from anyone, nor have I seen it on any outfitters pricing fact sheets. I am not sure this is correct, or at the least is not common practice.
Here is Perlitz actual fact sheet concering shots taken, it does not mention any costs associated with missing an animal..
Guides are present to assist. The hunter must make the final call. Wounded but not recovered animals will be scored by guide for pricing purposes.
