RE: Respect for animals
as a traditional bowhunter who uses no sights, no pins, no sighting method ......... I simply look where I want the arrow to go, and I shoot.
you don't place yards and things like that on instinctive hunting
does a baseball player calculate how many yards vs how fast a runner is etc on throwing out a guy stealing second ? no - he thinks he can make the throw, and he either tries or he doesn't
bowhunters either think they can make the shot, or they don't. I've yet to hear one person say " I knew I was going to miss, shot anyway " - because a $7 carbon and a $12 broadhead is worth something too you know
