Timing Your Shot in Africa

This question comes from the Shot Placement on Leopard thread but seems worthy of a whole discussion itself.

Personally, I grew up in the eastern US, where whitetail deer ARE the big animal to hunt. Whitetails are plentiful but very spooky, wily, at times almost ghostly critters. Most get shot on the opening day (something like 70%) because of the pure chaos but "hunting them" is very tricky. One thing you have to do is take the shot you get. Often that means very or no set-up time. You...

Found this, thought it might be interesting. They have gone to the extent of freezing animals then scanning and cutting in half to show the actual size and placement of the vital organs. Very informative.

The Animal Moved

The animal moved just as my client fired his shot. The tracker and I agreed that the bull was hit. Shouldn’t be a big problem the buffalo were close, it was a clear shot. We immediately followed the dust and blood into the thick brush of the nearby korongo. It was the end of August and we had shot many buffalo. The Tanzania season had been in full swing for weeks now so this was nothing out of the ordinary. Last week we had a similar situation when a wounded buffalo that was left overnight...

Love this section of the website. Have been pouring over placement on Bushpig and some others. Was wondering if anyone had or could whip up a diagram on some of the species not on here (or could give some insight, as I still don't have a copy of The Perfect Shot) and or give some advice or experience on this? -

Thanks as always!

As I have enquiring mind for all sorts of stuff, I'd like to ask a question and perhaps disspel within my own mind any errors that may occur due to old age and/or infirment; that many years ago BG hunters in Africa and some India white hunters used to emphasis the placement of the first shot, particularly dangerous game, into the shoulder. This would "ANCHOR" the animal, giving the hunter time to reload his weapon and delivery THE killing shot.

A question for the PH's our other experienced...

I would like to shoot a black wildebeest and was having trouble finding a black wildebeest shot placement picture. Is it very similar to the blue as far as the layout of vitals?

African Big Game Vital Diameters

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had significant measurement of some African Big Game Vital diameters for a perfectly placed shot. I was looking for how many inches I would need to hit inside of to bring down a Cape Buffalo, Wildebeest, or Kudu. I want to make a target for the kill zone on these animals and it's hard to know exactly what size to make my target. Any help would be appreciated.

Interesting Point About Bow Shot Placement

As some of you might have seen from my introduction thread, I'm new to the bow hunting game. Gone are the days I could line up my cross hairs behind the ear of a trophy reedbuck or impala and squeeze the trigger to see the animal disappear from my sight into a heap hidden from view by long veld grass.

With this in mind, it has been a time of personal growth and learning that one so often finds themselves in with this game. I've taken to learning as much as I can about shot placement and the...

Hi

Is there a marked photo for hunting Blesbok? I only ask because I am setting up the great pictures here for my kids to practice dry firing at them and the only one I could not find was Blesbok. If not no worries because I printed a picture off the web and I can just put a white mark on it. Thanks
