Default You see the Biggest Buck ever....

coming right at you and you draw up. He doesn't notice you but something makes him hang out just a bit beyond your comfortable shooting range. You don't want to lower your draw so you keep it on him since he keeps passing his gaze across you but doesn't actually see you yet because you have been still. Now he starts to come closer but you notice that you are moving the bow all over the place because you are now exhausted from holding that danged arrow all the way back. At 25 yds he turns broadside to you and exposes his whole side for your long awaited shot to happen.... Do you take the shot because you don't want this gigantic deer to get away or do you let him go since you realize you are obviously going to miss? Be honest here. I am asking this because I just watched a hunting video where you can see the compound bow shooter and his bow and he is all over the place from the hind quarters to even out in front of it. As I watched I am fully expecting this bow hunter to ease the string and let the buck walk (was a nice buck too to make anyone proud) but he releases and took the buck in the front of the front shoulder. There was very minimal penetration and you could see the deer running away with most of the shaft stciking out of him. I thought this was very unethical so I am wondering what you all would do. Once again be honest.
