While some may argue that new advancements in technology diminish skill they have many advantages. Such things as new broad heads for arrows, this advancements help make a quick and clean kill. Even with a bad shot a quick and clean can be made. All hunters have the goal of making a quick clean kill. Things like range finders help this, If a persons judgement on distance is off there arrow or bullet could miss vitals. Range finders take the questioning out of distance. Hunting has also become much safer. New tree stands and safety harnesses help keep the hunter safe. Traditional stands were built out of wood and nailed to trees. The nails and wood rot out, and when a hunter is on the weight causes them to give. It is estimated that one in three hunters will fall out of a tree stand in there lifetime. Now with the introduction of the safety harness the number is decreasing. With the newer rifles bullets travel farther and cause more damage causing a concern for other. stray bullets will fly for over a mile. Putting lots of people at risk. Now people are relying on hunters to use there common sense and see beyond the target and know what could happen if they miss.
