Generally speaking. Aim for center mass if this isn't working go for a head shot if you have one and if this isn't working go for a pelvis shot. The center mass is to take out vital organs (but if this is body armor being used this may not be effective). Head is the computer and the pelvis is for mobility.

In some cases that computer is still running Windows 95! :smilelol5:

I usually practise with two to center mass and one to the head but I am not sure how useful that is because one has to assume that if you hit someone in the center mass then their head is not very likely to be much higher up after two to the bread basket.

I could actually see aiming at the pelvic area with bean bags would be an effective, non lethal, take down (I used to play soccer and cricket (not at the same time) and have had many occasions where I was immobilised by having been hit in the crown jewels), the problem is that it would have to be an accurate shot.

Personally I would much rather, if I were going to pull a gun, shoot something more lethal than a bean bag. :tiphat:

I said pelvis! You are aiming at the pelvis girdle. This is a very large bony mass that when broken will make walking physically impossible and will work for either gender.

Doesn't the pelvic girdle have a great big gap at the front? In other words, if you are aiming at it, do you aim at the hips rather than the soft center part? :headscratch
