FWIW I think you made the right decision (for NE) by organising for the removal of the video clip. In
my experience NE has always tried to maintain a tasteful approach to our sport and I don't think that
particular clip fell within that category.

Video of feral animal destruction - I get.

Video showing a well placed shot - I get.

Repeated slo mo action of an animals head exploding as a result of impact by a high velocity
projectile - I don’t get. I think that is best left off this site.

Most of us here are experienced hunters – we know what happens when a high velocity projectile
hits a soft object. I personally hate the blood and gore and nervous kicking associated with head
shots and will go for a chest shot every time if I have the choice.

At the end of the day tho – these are just my opinions – the opinions of one member. If the majority
of members are comfortable with this stuff and want it on the site, and John sanctions it then go for
it. I will just try to avoid it as best I can.

Cheers and no offence meant.

I think you are dead wrong and guilty of double standards.

If Joe Blow was to go to Africa and shoot an Elephant in the head and have it on video,as well as slow mo everyone would say "great footage, thanks for sharing". .

Chest shots make you feel better ........please.
A head shot and its all over. We know how long an animal can carry a well placed chest shot.

I think you are a long way off the money on this one and I'm sick of pandering to the do gooder wankers.
