Default RE: Shooting an Elk Facing You?

I didn't see the show, but to me, Dwight is one of the truly great hunters left in the TV business. He hunts deep and hard in hard to get to places. There aren't any fences, food plots, or frills in his hunts. There is no comedy or cutting up trying to entertain and say "Look at me". No fist pumps or buzz words or wild antics. His hunts are educational. He is a true hunter. If he felt he could make the shot I have no problem with him doing it. And face it, an elk is big and 15 yards is a chip shot. He's been chucking arrows a long time in deep woods and on tall peaks. He packs in, llama ins or something all the time. There isn't much "Staged" in anything he does. I feel the number one bow hunter in the world is still Chuck, but Dwight is right there with him. All the rest of these clowns can't teach me a thing. Dwight can. He made the shot and I have NO problem with him taking it. I'd give a lot just to sit around his campfire and listen to his stories. The ethics posse really should pick a different target on this one.
