What is the best way to ensure you are targeting the correct game?

  1. Guess the type of animal

  2. Shoot and check afterwards

  3. Use binoculars to identify the animal

  4. Rely on the animal's sound

The correct answer is: Use binoculars to identify the animal

The best way to ensure you are targeting the correct game is by using binoculars to identify the animal. This can provide a clear and detailed view of the animal before taking any action. Option A, guessing the type of animal, is not a reliable method as it can lead to targeting the wrong game and potentially causing harm. Option B, shooting and checking afterwards, is not only unethical but also unsafe and could result in injury to yourself or others. Option D, relying solely on the animal's sound, is not as accurate as using binoculars to visually confirm the animal's identity.
