Nitrox,

Thanks. I'm sure you and others, including me, dislike repost after repost and it can seem like tooting one's horn a bit too much.

450NE No2,

Thanks.

Yea, good reloading - that wouldn't have been nessecary if I'd made the first or second shot right! But her head was very low, you can see it in the second photo. I needed to have been over the eye line rather than below it. I believe I focused on the prominent forward bulge of the zygomatic arch rather than finding the less distinct end of the arch. I have a LONG way to go to "seeing" the suspended brain like Richard Harland describes.

Have never hunted elephants but have one booked in 2010--per my conversations and readings..if you break the broom handle of imagining one sticking out both sides of the ears and through the head..is suppose to work for braining them..as I mentioned.. have never tried it but sure plan too when the opportunity arises..

Personally I think Harlands book is awesome..The guy I plan to be hunting with --Ivan Carter..states that he strongly prefers brain shots--said he had not done a heart/lung in years..not sure if that is all hype or whatever--looks like quite a "rush" ...
