As we know, 90% of internet hunters get 95%-100% bang-flops with their weapon of choice (astounding what those whompbutt supermagnums will do in instantly draining all oxygenated blood supply from the body!).
In reality, those of us who hunt know that deer and other large game ordinarily run a ways, typically at least 30-50 yards, even with a good heart or 2-lung shot and further - sometimes much further - with a worse shot.
The question is, in YOUR experience (actual hunters only please), what percentage of shots on medium and large game result in bang-flops - not a single step further taken by the game - no tracking involved? Count ONLY shots to vitals area please!
Feel free to share your caliber/ bullet / load /rifle of choice.
See Poll.
My fairly limited results are 0% bang-flops with vitals shots, and 100% bang-flops with neck shots. Since my poll is asking about vitals shots, I'm going to vote 0%.
