[QUOTE="ndking1126, post: 2115728, member: 26820"] Antelope was standing basically broadside, facing to my right. I aimed left somewhere near the rear ham so the wind pushed it to the right. I missed a shot about 10 seconds earlier, and I was confident it was the wind that caused me to miss so I aimed back even farther on the animal than I did on the first shot. The wind was much stronger than I had shot with before at that distance. I felt comfortable taking the shot because I knew a miss would be a clean miss and any hit would be fatal since it would have been neck/shoulder/front lung area. Maybe it wasnt actually the jugular vein, I'm not an expert on their anatomy. It was a 30-06 shooting 180 grain core-lokts.. so not exactly a good wind-bucking round haha. [/QUOTE]
