Perfect Shot: A Complete Revision of the Shot Placement for African Big Game

This best-selling work includes an invaluable natural history section on African big game and with much technical information it stands as the most important reference work on the subject. Kevin 'Doctari' Robertson's bestselling book on shot placement for African game, The Perfect Shot, has now been completely revised and updated with extensive additions to the text; 300 all new photographs of the animals covered and revised, detailed anatomical drawings. The Perfect Shot IIalso has shot placement details for a number of species not covered in the original edition, including blesbok, bongo, black wildebeest, grysbok, nyala, reedbuck, roan and steenbok. In all, twenty seven African game species are now covered. Robertson, a licensed professional hunter and veterinarian, first developed The Perfect Shot a dozen years ago and it was quickly recognised as the most comprehensive work ever undertaken to show the anatomical features for all classes of African game. His revised version reflects his increased knowledge of big game anatomy and shot placement. In addition, the chapters on bullet construction and performance have been substantially revised to cover the advances in bullet development that have occurred in the twelve years since the publication of the original edition. The book covers just about every animal you might hunt in Africa, from the big, dangerous species (elephant, buffalo, rhino and hippo) to the large cats (lion and leopard) and from the largest antelopes (eland and bongo) to the smallest (duiker, grysbok and klipspringer). Even Africa's more unusual species (giraffe, crocodile, zebra and hyena) are covered in detail. Each animal is shown in at least one colour field picture as well as a colour 'ghost view' that illustrates the shoulder bones, heart, lungs, brain and spinal column. These views allow you to see precisely where to place your shot in relation to how the animal may be standing. Most species now have multiple illustrations
