What kind of guy is this?
I saw this in a Mississippi Game and Fish magazine. Talk about a horrible hunter. Why would he do this. I wouldn't shoot at that if it was a 16 pointer. This guy, Odis Hill, shot a 10-11 point buck. Here's the bad part of his story: "He never stopped so I hit the release. It was just luck. That's the only deer I've ever hit running. I've shot at some before, but that's the only one I've ever hit."
The arrow hit the buck in the neck, severing the jugular vein. He ran between 50 and 75 yards before dropping behind a cypress tree.
"I'd like to be able to tell you I was aiming for his neck," Hill said. "But I was just aiming for deer."
It was in the Mississippi Game and Fish in the October 1990 edition.
That is just horrible.[:@][:@][:@]

From the sound of the story the guy took a wild shot, just hoping to hit the deer.....not good!
On another note, about 1/2 of the deer I have killed were slowly walking down a trail, and 1/2 were broadside at a standstill, usually feeding. I have shot one running deer, he was chasing a doe and ran right under my stand, so I proceeded to spine him. He went down like a ton of bricks! Under no circumstances did I shoot at him "just hoping" to hit him. I "knew" I would and I knew I would bury an arrow through his lungs or spine him!

If you know you can hit him in the vitals then take the shot. This guy said it was luck.

Obviously a rookie editor just looking for a story to write.The hunter on the other hand either is very good or very dumb to even talk about it in a magizine. DUH!
