For someone who hasn't hunted DG and has never faced
a charge of any kind, I just think what you said was a very
big statement.
SO I HAVE SOME CONFIDENCE IN MY ABILITY..SO WHAT!

How many double rifles do you own / have you shot
and what calibres ?

WHAT? YOU SOUND LIKE A COPPER! SO NOW I HAVE TO PROVE TO YOU THAT I HAVE SHOT DOUBLES ETC WTF FOR? DOES IT MAKE SOME SORT OF SUPER HUNTER TO OWN OR HAVE USED DOUBLE RIFLES...COME ON YOU ARE KIDDING ARENT YOU?

"and you have to admit some folks can be better shots than the average Joe too
plus a "readability" of game that many will never get..." read the story by
Boddington on his charge and other Lion and Leopard charges and tell me how
you can read game when you can't see it !. And he's got more experience than everyone on this forum

i THINK IF YOU KNEW A LITTLE MORE YOURSELF YOU WOULDNT BE QUOTING A NAME LIKE OLD BOD`S MATE, MANY OTHER NAMES ARE FAR MORE EMINENT THAN OLD BODS HE`S JUST ANOTHER HUNTING MAG WRITER THAT I READ IN THE SCI JOURNALS,MUCH THE SAME AS THE REST OF THEM FROM AROUND THE WORLD. TRY CORBETT IF YOU WANT TO IMPRESS,MAYBE A LITTLE BELL THROWN IN TOO!

With such a big statement, I'd almost like to pay for you to
face a charge from a Leopard or Lion and just see how you fare.

WELL THATS AN ANGLE I WOULD LIKE TO EXPLORE MYSELF ...I`M WILLING IF YOUR PURSE IS AND MY PASSPORT IS UP TO DATE COBBER.

I know plenty of very good target shots who are useless in the field
shooting at animals.
I DONT KNOW WHERE THIS COMES INTO IT AS I DONT TARGET SHOOT AT ALL ,NEVER HAVE COBBER...I`M A HUNTER NOT A PAPER MAN AND I DONT CARE HOW OR WHAT YOU HAVE PERSONALLY SHOT ON A TARGET AS IT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO RELEVANCE AT ALL TO THE SUBJECT OF BEING ABLE TO GET A COUPLE OF SHOTS OF AT CHARGING LIVE GAME FOR GAWDS SAKE HAHA SHOOT ALL THE BULLS YOU LIKE ON PAPER I ;LIKE MINE WITH HAIR ON `EM AND A BIG SWINGING SET OF BALLS TOO.

My reference to "charging sambar" lthat you almost took umbrage to
was because I was trying to work out what you had been charged by
in making such a statement.

SO IT APPEARS THAT ONE HAS TO HAVE BEEN CHARGED BY SOMETHING TO ESTABLISH HIS/HERS BONA FIDES IT SEEMS IN YOUR EYES.
IT ALSO SEEMS FROM YOUR POST THAT YOU APPEAR TO SAY THAT BECAUSE ONE HASNT DONE SOMETHING PREVIOUSLY HE THEREFORE CANT DO IT AT ALL...JUST REMEMBER MATE THAT EVERY PERSON THAT HAS EVER SQUEEZED A TRIGGER THEY ALSO HAD THEIR FIRST TIMES, WETHER IT BE CAMEL, RAT CAT,ZEBRA, LION,BOAR WHATEVER,WE ALL START SOMEWHERE AND ALL I HAVE SIMPLY SAID IS THAT I HAVE CONFIDENCE IN MY ABILITY TO DO IT AND I HOPE YOU CHECK YOUR BANK BALANCE OUT AND THERE IS ENOUGH IN IT FOR THAT TRIP YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE ME ON
