Default What's your batting average?

i.e. deer killed for arrows released.

If you have to put 2 arrows in a deer, it's still 2 arrows released, one deer bagged. I was striving for a perfect season, (who doesn't right?) but am already flawed. I have a 5/6 ratio. #6 did not result in a wounded deer but rather and thankfully just a wonded maple. But for the less fortunate, I wont pretend that things don't happen out of our control.

Just thought it'd be interesting to see how everyone is doing this year.

I don't much like what this says.....

So you spine a deer.....and follow up with 2-3 more arrows.....and you're penalized (in your scenario) as far as your "batting average"? I'd rather know I did the right thing.

Extenuating circumstances. I won't play.

Edit - And no....I haven't spined a deer, this year.
