Shot Placement

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...
