DG Stopping Rifle - Double vs Bolt

[grayghost]

I had heard about that video but never had the opportunity to view it until now. Thanks SuicidJky for posting the link. To my novice eyes, I saw several mistakes the hunter made. I think I would have taken the first shot opportunity when the Lion turned his head to the left. He exposed his right shoulder to what I viewed as a good shot. Would not breaking the Lion's right shoulder and penetrating the vitals been the correct shot? For sure, after the hunter took the shot, I would have given the Lion another shot in the left shoulder when he first raised up after being hit. That man is extremely lucky to be alive! If that Lion had hooked him solid, I suspect he would have biten him (the hunter) in the neck/face area, possibly killing him. Just goes to show; never underestimate the power of dangerous game. Cool video but it gives me the "heebee jeebee's." grayghost
