Just got my copy from JB and am only on Chapter 12 so far but I can already recommend it extremely highly! If you are paying attention, and particularly relatively new or inexperienced to the sport you can learn a TON from this book! Also, I know John well and it is written pretty much in the style with which he converses, and since he did his own editing it remains pretty pure Barsness! Cant wait to get into the African Chapters! This is an EXCELLENT read!
Is the infamous "butt-shot zebra" incident mentioned in this one as well? You may not want to be in such a hurry to get to the Africa chapters. Just sayin'.
The zebra wasn't shot in the butt!
It was shot in the hip, angling forward to demonstrate to you and others the penetrating efficiency of a 175 grain 7x57...
( It did indeed range up into the vitals and killed the zebra within 200 yards)
The sun was in my eyes, the wind was blowing, I was sick, and had never shot a gun before..
There, that about covers it!
