I don't think 5shot even does a rock test. It would just get too costly.[:@]

I've never Hunted from a 12' tripod. It seemed to change my shot placment, but some of the guy's at camp said I should have bent at the waist before taking the shot. Don't know, I just missed my intended target.

You should practice shooting from elevations before you hunt from them. I do most of my shooting at ground level but always practice from an elevated stand before the season to make sure I am on. It does change things. Good luck on your next shot.

I have a 6' tripod set up in the yard. The shot from the tripod is 26 yard. never had a problem. I also practice from the ground. I think maybe just the first shot of the season probaly jitters.

AW, you can still use that arrow.
Just get some hot melt, chewing gum, marine epoxy, and a file to sharpen up that point a wee bit.

Hey, look on the bright side. At least you didn't hit the shoulder bone.
