Why is it taboo for "professional" deer hunters to shoot more than once?

Why do they almost never shoot more than once?

Often they make a horrible shot, the deer is still clearly in view and still alive, and they start high fiving the camera man and using binoculars.

Why do they never make an attempt to finish off the animal?

Because they are hunting high fence places and they know they'll find the deer

If all the fan boys are done sucking off The Nuge


I think they don't shoot because they'd rather the animal go bed down and die rather than filling it with holes and damaging meat.

A better question is why would you shoot a deer twice

I take a second shot if I can, a little insurance ain't a bad thing.

Because 90% of those shows are terrible.

They have it on camera and a guide right there. I guess they figure they'll find it eventually.

0% chance it's to preserve the meat. I doubt most of those guys eat their deer.

The only times I've seen them have a chance at a second shot, they have taken them, so I am not sure what you are talking about at all. I've even seen archery shows with more than one hit.

Probably cause they are trying to sell the latest and greatest rifles and ammo.

These (insert brand here) bullets put em down no matter where you hit em!
