Default How do you guys aim??

When you guys draw on the deer, do you raise the bow until you get to his vitals or do you lower the bow on his vitals? Some guys follow the the leg up and then move the bow over to the vitals. Some guys just draw and and try to put right on them. What do yall do?

I draw looking at the vitals and bring the pin up to my sight line. (I keep both eyes open.)

I keep both eyes open and follow the back part of the front leg up, exhale and release.

I point the bow at the deer, then draw straight back. Then make minor adjustments as need be....As little movement as possible...
