No flames...
We don't do flame wars around here too often. You are mostly correct, that is why I indicated the shots made and when they were poorly placed. Even solid hits can go wrong though, even with animals that are not alarmed or amped up on adrenaline. About the only hit that will anchor them every time in my experience is a spine shot and that is an easy target to miss.
