Default RE: Bow Hunting

Anti-hunters like to think that bowhunters just wound deer that go off to die a painful, lingering death. Nothing could be more wrong! A properly placed razor sharp broadhead kills very quickly and humanely and many of us have seen deer jump at the sound and then go back to whatever it was doing before the shot--so pain is not an issue. If you really are a bowhunter (which sounds suspicious to me), then practice, practice, practice until you can consistantly place all your arrows in the kill zone (using broadheads). Hunt only with razor sharp new broadheads and take only shots that offer you a very high percentage of hitting the kill zone. Then be careful and don't stop tracking until you recover your deer.
