What does "Bang Flop" mean to you???
ghosthunter:
I thought about this awhile, and when I hear or read some one say “Bang Flop, or can’t stop the Flop on Bone Collector series, it kinda turns me off.
Can’t really explain it but it like cheapens the event for me some how. Don’t get me wrong I get real excited when a buddy kills something. Recently a buddy killed a moose and I was so excited on videos I cussed up a storm.
I am not the guy who kneels and gives thanks either. Been killing critters since I was 8, but something about Bang Flop or Stop the Flop just doesn’t do the moment Justice for me.
:dunno:

Very solid points. I don’t love it when the kill part is overemphasized either. I think most on here would agree with your points

My last mule deer back flipped where he stood.
My black tail this year took off thru a pile of logs, how he got thru it I don’t know.

I shot a spike blacktail and it was lying on it's side.....with blood coming out of it's chest and mouth. Not being the patient type, I didn't give it time to bleed out or stiffen up. As I approached, it jumped up and ran off through the woods. I followed it but then thought I might be trespassing on someone else's property. Recovered it the next morning and all was fine (late November). From lying there dying, it recovered enough to go another 50 yards or so and had immediately found a prominent game trail to run on......found it on the game trail, past where I had stopped the previous late afternoon.

Hit a whitetail shooting from an elevated steep position. All I saw was a flash of white as he was knocked over. He was shot high over the lungs and broke his spine. Have shot and seen elk shot through the heart......both walked a slow circle and then fell over......stayed on their feet approx. 15 seconds.
Bob33:
It is rare for an animal that isn't shot in the head or spinal cord to die instantly. The animal may become unconscious or collapse from shock but is alive for several seconds. It is somewhat of a mystery why some animals collapse instantly while other animals shot in the same way run. In my experience it seems that bigger animals like elk and moose collapse more often than smaller animals like pronghorns.
