Default RE: In Close, Where To Shoot???

I'm confussed. I personally have shot deer straight below me and a have shot targets straight below me. I bring the pin up to the inside of the deer, or the side closest to me. That's when I let go. I hope that makes sense. I guess I would be aiming low because the arrow hits a little higher than you are aiming. I do agree with Lefty Llewellyn that it's a bad shot but sometimes that's all you get. If you have to take it aim low, like I said rest your pin on the lower inside edge and let go. I would suggest to set up a target or just pick a leaf on the ground when your in the tree and take a shot. Experience is the best teacher.
