I do take head shots but only when and where appropriate. I have seen too many shots slightly off center that have done less than immediately fatal damage. Whatever the most humane shot is presented is the one that I will take, and that is often in the lower chest.

I asked a simple question and the resulting posts suggesting that I practice strike me as flippant and somehow just rub me the wrong way. I stuck my nose in somewhere it did not belong recently and one of our good posters responded "Entire problem woulda been averted if responses answered the question ", and I believe that he was right.
