I don't get this? Honest about what? As far as I know. he hasn't lost an animal to a PB. You can't say they aren't accurate.

I honestly believe that a lot of the negative stories you read about PB's are hunter error. Someone claims they made a perfect shot and the animal ran away and was never found. Why should we believe they made a perfect shot if the animal got a way? He might have hit it in the butt. Butt shots don't kill.
