I wasn't talking about the deer jumping your string... I was saying that NOBODY can predict when a deer is going to take a step... So at the very moment you release that arrow the deer takes a step... You could very well hit the deer in the non vital area AKA the pounch AKA the gut shot
So no matter how many 3-D circuits you chased or FITA's you shot in... It still does not mean that you are incapable of putting a bad shot on a deer at those extremely long shooting distances
Deer take steps at 20 yards just like they do at 60. Anything that can move possess the ability to time that move just so you are loosing that arrow at the time it is moving. Of course the deer will not have moved as much at 20 as it would at 60 by the time the arrow arrives. But along your lines of thinking Longbeard, just about ANY shot with a bow and arrow would be a bad one... unless of course the deer was tied up with a three foot rope, or otherwise rendered immobile.
