Hoppdoc:

Grab a copy of Robertson's "The Perfect Shot", and Boddington's "The Perfect Shot North America". Both pretty good books. Robertson's is really excellent.

If you are really interested in a further education {other than killing game}, find a meat packing plant around and wheedle your way in somehow and study the critters on the hoof and on the hook. Every time we kill here on the ranch {any critter} I get the kids out and we use it for a "science project" of sorts. Studying this stuff even on paper does help if you can't see dead critters in person.

An example of all this I can point to is from last November when my daughter shot her first deer. We practice on the range at various targets, shooting from field positions, and I won't let anyone, my kids and me included, hunt on my place till they have past a rudimentary shooting skills test.

In the event, of course and naturally, the critter gave her a presentation she had never seen exactly in books or on targets. But all her years in 4-H ag club and the hanging around the meat hooks watching critters get carved up paid off; she knew where to place her shot and she put it where it belonged. Prehunt study does pay off.
