Which of the following is NOT a factor in determining a safe shot?

The animal's size
Your ability to cleanly kill the game
The backdrop and what lies beyond the target
The wind direction

The correct answer is: The wind direction

The wind direction is not a factor in determining a safe shot because it does not directly affect the safety of the shot or the ethical considerations of making a clean kill. While it is important to be aware of and adjust for wind when shooting, it is not a determining factor in a safe shot as it can change quickly and can be unpredictable. The other options, such as the animal's size, your ability to cleanly kill the game, and the backdrop and what lies beyond the target, are all important factors to consider when determining a safe shot. These factors ensure that the shot is ethical, effective, and does not pose a danger to other individuals or property.
