Those who hunt with bow and arrow from treestands would realize the problem better than gunhunters. It hadn't occurred to me as a problem until now.

Excellent point that the bigger thicker animal would magnify this problem signifigantly.Probably worse when you shoot at a buff above you and tend to shoot high on the external shoulder/chest instead of into the "core" heart lung region

Gotta practice going for the "boiler room" in 3D on the DG, no matter what the up/down angle..
