Default RE: Experience VS shot selection

To be honest my "experience" has cost me on some shots!

I judge each shot when I am live primetime, I can not guess what I would do.

I will take some pictures of the hole I shot porky through, At 35 years old
and knowing how my bow shoots I did not have ounce of doubt.

One of my youth hunters ask me how I keep my cool in these situations. He said "You're looking at the rack, deer is moving, trying to pick a spot through a 4 in dia hole, how do you keep all that straight" I told himif I had all those thoughtsI would never shoot a deer again, LOL.

I haveone thought,Put an arrow in the kill zone. Everything else is on auto pilot these days.

I guess I should answer, each of us has to make the choice to shoot based on our own experience. I do not need any justifiaction from my peers onmy shot choice. I have to live with it.

So my answers is I do not want any latitude from anyone.
