Shot Selection Part 3 - Putting it Together

from The Beyond Hunter Ed Podcast Hosted by Eric Jajtner

Release Date: July 9, 2022 Summary: In this episode we take everything we talked about over the last two episodes and put it together to give you a complete system to know when to shoot and when to look for a better shot. We build on the animal's vital zone size in part 1, and your weapon's and personal capabilities in part 2, and we add the environmental factors, animal behavior and weather into the mix to give you a full picture of when the shot is a high percentage shot and when the conditions are not quite right.
