Very very good article, things can go bottoms up very quickly.

I hunted with a client a couple of years ago. We were on fresh tracks of blue wildebeest and zebra's, I could hear them infront of us but could not seethem. Then we heard a sound like a diesel engine, I realised that the herd started running, the next I knew I saw them running straight at us, we were luckily amongst a cluster of trees on our knees. The herd split as they neared the trees. We were all busy getting up to dart for cover if needed. The client was to my left, as I was getting up I was watching the herd passing about 10 m away from us from the left to the right. The next moment a shot went off. The client was on his feet firing a shot into the herd over my head. Luckily I was still in the process of getting up. That was a real scarry incident. Luckily nothing was hit, I was quite shaken and the client did get a big mouthfull from me.

Things can really happen very fast, it pays to be that little bit more carefull.
