I guess it’s different strokes for different folks. I grew up bow hunting and I tend to shoot animals in the lungs. That means heart sometimes too. I guess I’ve lived a sheltered life that so many people hunt places that lung shot deer are too hard to find.
While I'm one that agrees with you, I have to admit that there are a lot of factors that can make no/little tracking attractive, if not essential.
But, a well placed 300g bullet out of my 45/70 isn't creating a tracking "situation" that requires tip of the spear tracking skills.....
