Thanks for the replies. It's helpful for me to think about. I guess I still don't understand where an elephant's earhole is. I'll keep trying.

Even though I'm probably 20 years or more away from being financially able to hunt elephants, if I'm ever able, I like to dream. And if I look for the brain shot angle on every elephant picture I see from now on, by the time I get to hunt, I will have visualized the shot enough that it will be automatic.

I'm a big believer in visualization. You train your muscles and develop muscle memory for shooting, so why not train your brain too, so that your brain automatically adjusts for the right shot, and you don't have to think about it.

It's something I've been doing for years in my treestands while bowhunting deer. I visualize different scenarios, and when something does happen, I automatically do what I've rehearsed in my mind. Without thinking about it. Seems to work.
