Ok I take most of this back, hunting's fun at parts, when all the planets align and you get an easy perfect catch, but most times you can't.

Kuakas and pobbers sometimes keep hopping around the calling point and make it hard to land a shot, and if you miss then that's it, perfect catch gone, at best you'll get a good one.

Virminks are the easiest of them all, but hunting those alone for standing is really time consuming, even for a game where time-consumption is the main gameplay.

Since flying creatures have that "disjointed" hitbox the article says, it's really hand to land a shot even with pinpoint accuracy, Condrocs are not that bad since they land on the ground, but Sawgaws fly from one place to another (pretty much like the rodents here) and can't even focus the sight on them before they fly away to another point. I tried a Mergoo once, and "I got lucky" doesn't even describe it, it was flying, I shot it out of the air and bam, perfect catch, but haven't tried another ever since because I was already mad at the birds.

Now Bolarolas, the article says they expose their bellies regularly and we have to take the chance to tranq them then, fair enough, but they barely lift themselves up so you don't have much time to calculate the shot, and by the time you did the math the traveling time of the dart is not enough to hit them in the belly, and end up alerting them.

Horrasques I can't understand, I may be standing on the nose of Nef Anyo's statue in the Vallis and they could be near the entrance of Fortuna and still spot me right away. Literally, I always stand on top of those mushrooms to get a good look at the calling point, Virminks don't detect me that way, why do Horrasques? And once they spot you ONCE they stay underground and run away and can't even get a good catch.

Haven't tried stovers yet, but here's a question, you're supposed to get perfect catchs if you're not spotted. If they spawn and instantly attack you (which means you've been spotted), how on earth are you supposed to get a perfect catch then.

I'm willing to bet Kubrodons are just like the Horrasques and spot you if they ever see a pixel of your warframe from behind a massive mountain.

BTW, I'm pretty certain Horrasques didn't spot me for the smell, if I'm staying in the heights of mushrooms, I don't think the scent should be smelled by a creature 40 meters below.
