What is the primary factor in determining a proper shot at game?

  1. The hunter's confidence level

  2. The type of game being hunted

  3. The distance to the game

  4. Knowing your weapon's effective range

The correct answer is: Knowing your weapon's effective range

Knowing your weapon's effective range is the primary factor in determining a proper shot at game. This is crucial for ethical hunting practices to ensure a clean and humane kill. Understanding the limitations of your weapon helps hunters make informed decisions about when to take a shot and when to hold back. Factors like the hunter's confidence level, the type of game being hunted, and the distance to the game are all important considerations, but they should be secondary to knowing your weapon's effective range.
