Default RE: Buckmasters

take a look at the new "other" buckmasters magazine. RACK MAGAZINE. The cover story is about a man who took a 70 yard shot at a monster buck with a BOW! let me quote a few lines..
"with david, who'd been practicing extremely long shots on a whim, it was not far enough. With his 40 yard pin about 4 feet above the animals back, David hesitated only a second or two before releasing. How could he not shoot a buck that had become an obsession? He admits, however, that a great deal of luck was involved. For instance, while he might have known where to hold for a 70 yard shot, he had not counted on the deer being able to turn 90 degrees before the arrow struck. In other words, although the buck was standing completely still and broadside when David released, it had swung around by the time the arrow arrived- causing the arrow to sail into the ham-fortunatly severing the femoral artery.".

I'm not sure who is worse...Rack(Buckmasters) for publishing this article, or the hunter for taking a hail mary shot at a deer 70 yards away. <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>
