Hawk's Top 10 things to consider when encountering an aggressive Zombie
1. Keep maximum distance between you and target.

2. The only way to drop a Zombie in one shot is a 'cranium shot'
This is hard enough to do if the target is just standing there. But if its coming towards you, forget it. In the movies a total novice becomes a gunslinger in one day (or 28). In real life to pull off a cranium shot with a hand gun, you would realistically need to be within ten feet, or one-two second distance. You miss, you probably don't get a second shot.

3. Go for a 'face blast'. Hit the face as many times as you can and hope for a lucky cranium shot. At least you will probably take out the eyes, rendering it blind. Or most of it's teeth, That will decrease it's damage capabilities. If you are in a group, and it's practical, call out the target and ALL of you take it out at once.
4. In a melee situation, if you only have a hand weapon, NEVER GET WITHIN ARMS REACH unless unavoidable.
5. Knee shot. (Melee) If it's coming towards you, and you only have a hand weapon. Let it approach, step to the side and swing at the knee. then take out the other knee. Thus dropping the target and minimalizing it's danger.
6. Face hit. (Melee) Avoiding the arms, stab at the face. try to take out the eyes and teeth. This will not kill the Zombie, but it will render it ineffective long enough for you to circle behind it and execute a cranium shot. Only attempt if you have a long weapon, such as a shovel or an axe.
7. Neck shot (Melee) Try to sever the spinal chord. If you succeed in this maneuver, the Zombie is rendered virtually harmless thereafter.
8. Tazer - Forget it. Undead do not have a functioning central nervous system.
9. Pepper spray - About as useless as kicking it in the bollocks.
10. ALWAYS wear protective eyewear and mask. Always wash, or dispose of (burn) clothing after an attack. Virus is not air bourne but highly contagious if enters the blood stream.
Exclusive ZWN interview with Retired Major Wilber “Deadeye” Richards
Interview conducted by ZWN Field reporter Jack Duffy.
“First, fighting zombies is like any other military operation. If it’s not carefully planned and choreographed, you’re just ringing the dinner bell for these ghouls."

“Second, one thing amateurs trying to kill zombies never understand is; if you want to do it right, don’t walk around so damn much! Zombies will hunt you, save your energy, find some place secure and up off the ground and they’ll come looking for you. Next, get a bunch of guys together who can generally tolerate each other and give them some guns for God’s sake, the bigger the better. Then KABLAMMY!

“I’ll never understand why the first thing people do when they see a zombie is run out all by themselves with a baseball bat or samurai sword. Heads is HARD. You can’t go out there, bonk a zombie on the head, and expect him to die. You gotta go out there like Babe Ruth and shoot for the stands! Old zombies are easier ‘cause they soften up a bit, but these new ones are tough. And, most people are just not psychologically prepared to go out there and whack Uncle Ed in the head with a stick. I’m not saying it can’t be done. But, if you’re out there with nothing but a nine iron and three or four zombies heading for you… Well, all I can say is, ‘good hunting .’

"I tried not to imagine the terror she must have been in. Trying to hold onto something, anything. Desperately clinging, trying to stop her descent as her speed increased on the cold, hard ice."
