Sounds very interesting, even to a non-professional like myself. Plenty of nonsense is talked about what does/doesn't kill deer and how.

Shame it's a bit too far just to satisfy some curiosity.

I’ve seen the shot placement lecture with Peter Green, if you have the opportunity to go, take it.
I must confess, this was one of the most informative and valuable sessions I have attended.
When Peter presents, pin back your ears and listen, he has forgot more than most of us will ever know.
