I get that hunting has changed, but I grew up hunting in front of dogs. Shots were almost always moving and sometimes running flat out. The emphasis was on getting bullets into deer. Not waiting for the perfect shot, or heaven forbid, making a clean kill. Like I said, I know things have changed but I do think we emphasize the perfect over good enough too much. It doesn’t matter much how small the groups are as long as they are small enough and you need to aim at the vital zone on a deer instead of trying to pick a tick to shoot at through your 18x scope at 75 yards. That’s practical marksmanship.
You do make some good points on the topic. but as you you "grew up hunting in front of dogs", what were those dogs doing behind you?
