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.

I only watched a piece but I am hung to definitely sit and watch it. Looks really good. Thanks for posting.

Very well done. Thanks for posting.
 
Very good info. Nice to see vitals and crosshairs on the animal. I'm going to set up targets and a cow bell to try it with my air rifle just as he did. Looks like a great and cheap idea for practice.

Thanks Stug for the info!

I also really like Your home country. I'm ready to go visit again.
 
I watched it again. I highly recommend this video. It really put into my mind that I definitely tend to shoot higher than ideal. It gives me confidence to shoot lower than I was comfortable with. Also that wildebeest image is an eye opener.
 
Stug, thanks for posting it.

This is an excellent video, viewing it should be part of the preparation of every hunter going afield.
 
I only intended to skim thru the video, but he got me...I watched almost the entire thing, save for some of the dramatic "stalking up, listen to the tune" bits.
quite interesting.
 
Great video - very informative.
 
Great videos!!
 
Explains not only the where, but why. Very informative.
 
Some good info in the vid but what really annoys me is when they are stalking TOWARDS the camera which means that the camera is between the stalker and the prey which makes stalking BS. The camera should be behind the stalker for it to have any legitimacy either that or there is no need to stalk and a straight up walk is all that is needed
 
Man, I am guilty of not firing ten shots at targets per live animal. In fact, I think I shoot more animals than paper! Good video.
 
Outstanding.

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
