At what point should you identify your target while hunting?

  1. Before raising your weapon

  2. After taking your shot

  3. While looking through the scope

  4. When the target is in close range

The correct answer is: Before raising your weapon

It is crucial to identify your target before raising your weapon while hunting to ensure the safety of yourself and others. By identifying your target before raising your weapon, you can confirm that it is a legal game animal within your line of fire and take necessary precautions to prevent accidental harm. Shooting at an unidentified target can have severe consequences, including injury or death to innocent bystanders or the illegal killing of protected species. Therefore, always remember to positively identify your target before raising your weapon while hunting.
