How to get a perfect pelt when hunting

red-dead-redemption-2

I've been hunting a bit, some deer, a racoon and an squirrel. But I noticed that I never get a perfect pelt when skinning the animals. It's always just a good pelt or worse.

It's not like I've been riddling the pelts with bullet holes, I killed them with one shot from my bow. But that doesn't seem to be enough to get perfect pelts.

What else do I have to do to avoid damaging the pelts?

In addition to using the right ammo, you will also need to hunt 3-star animals. Analyze them with binoculars to check their quality. Hope this helped, I just had to figure it out too
