Hunt Ethically and Responsibly
Never take these kinds of shots:
- Game you can't identify
- Running game when you don't have time to check your zone-of-fire
- "Skylined" animals on a hill where you can't check what lies beyond your target
- Game that's clearly out of range
- When the missed shot's angle would cause your bullet to travel its maximum trajectory and could injure others
- Shooting at a flock, which has a higher likelihood of wounding rather than killing
- When objects in the foreground could deflect your shot
- Game at which another hunter is shooting
- When a bullet is likely to ricochet off flat or hard surfaces such as rocks, water, or trees
- Any unlikely shot, regardless of how desirable the target may be
