Default RE: So I got to work and the world crumbles

I saw the thread briefly before it got axed and I could see the handwriting on the wall within the first few replies............wasn't gonna end pretty [:'(]


I personally love seeing pics of how equipment did on game. I take detailed shots myself most times.......even with my slug gun........you'd be surprised at the differences you see if you look closely. I think all that info is important and interesting. My field dressing time is part autopsy

Having said all that I really just didn't see the point in taking the shot..........I don't see what info could be obtained that is of any value. All that could come out of it is "Hypershocks blow through bone" which as we can see was true coming out of Len's setup. Since the power of Len's setup puts him in a huge minority of average hunters this info is then not only useless but also could be harmful. The day some goofball straps on a hypershock and doesn't care where he is aiming because he heard or saw them destroy a shoulder is where you will get the wounded deer...........not from Len.

If you can hit the shoulder you can hit the chest so any shoulder shots should be immediately followed by an "oops" from the hunters mouth.

I would rather read Len+David's thread 100 times rather then the "Can't figure out what happened" threads we see every fall.......no practice, 2" mechs out of low power setups, dull heads, stupid shots, poor tracking.

Give me a shattered shoulder and a dead doe any day over that garbage [:'(]


Pretty tough crowd when a resume like Len's doesn't even get you the benefit of the doubt with the ethics police.............can you imagine if a new member or someone they hardly know had posted that thread []
