Ingwe,
Showing off was not a good statement on my part and was not intended to flame your posts, nor was it directed at you personally, for that I apoligise and will be more carefull with my responses which are pretty much spontainias for the most part....

As to the head shot, I have used it successfully many, many times, but again if I blew it,which I never have, I would not be accessed a trophy fee, but would feel pretty bad about breaking a jaw or what not, on that same subject however I have seen many many animals wounded with body shots and I have wounded animals with the body shots, so there you go!! I have wounded 5 animals in my 60 year hunting career and wounded 3 of them on one day, that was not my finest moment I assure you...Still I own up to my mistakes, its amazing how many hunters can't remember the animals they wounded...

Nothing takes the place of good shooting and you obviously are a good shot and have confidence in your ability, or you would not have broached the subject..but on the whole I would not advise the head shot for the average hunter if there is such a critter....Most should take the biggest target they are afforded....
