Just had some more time to think about this.

It is and it isn't. Let's take a shot where a deer ducks. Arrow flies right over it's back. The SHOT is EXACTLY where the archer aimed. The TARGET moved. Can't blame the archer for that.....unless there's an issue with shooting at a deer that's already on high alert.

It CAN be a worse shot (clean miss)....and it can be a GREAT shot. The target dictates much of how we perceive the outcome of the shot. I jus think that the guy who wounds a deer gets unfairly POUNDED, sometimes.....when he's done nothing worse than the guy who missed, clean (as far as execution).....and sometimes put a better shot on the animal.

I see both sides.
