[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2865189, member: 68875"] This is the only part I strongly disagree with, depending on the game animal and location. A few years ago, we were on a pronghorn hunt. We were sitting on a really good bedded buck with about 30 does about 450 yds away, just waiting for him to get up and present a shot. About 2-3 miles off, a rifle shot rang out. The entire group was gone in seconds. And I mean GONE! Up and a 50mph mad dash away from the direction of the shot. 2 days later, I ended up finding the buck and does, and smoked the buck at 460 yards with a suppressed rifle. The does ran about 100 yards and stopped looking around and wondering what the "whop" was when the bullet hit the buck. I have seen elk and deer both do the same thing. Loud bang, gone. With a suppressor, the rest hang around unaware of why their buddy hit the ground. Time and again. [/QUOTE]
