Talking

Many people think that a heart shot will stop a being. About the only way to get this type of action would be a shot to the central nervous system. This would be to the base of the spinal cord and brain, not necessarily the brain as witnessed by the congresswoman who servived a head shot.

After listening to Halfbaked, he sounds like he will not see the light and continue to believe what he believes. This is all after he is told of all these different examples to the contrary. Of course this doesn't make him a bad guy, just a little confused to the facts.

But I think we can still let him hang with us!

Sorry Halfbaked, but don't think there is any BS here. I took the heart out of a deer with a 275 gr Maxihunter while she was on the run and she still covered about 70 yds. Left a blood trail Stevie Wonder could have followed. You could say it was a lucky shot. But I say luck is that point in time when preparation and opportunity come together.
