Default RE: Where would you aim?

ORIGINAL: GMMAT

Best advice I could give you is to not get so high in the tree .....and to make some of those angles lessen. From 30' in a tree.....you're SEVERELY handcuffing yourself on what should be "chip shots". You're your own worst enemy.
I don't ever climb more than about 18ft. The reason I listed some scenarios at 30' is because one of my trees is inthe valley oftwo side by side ridges and that tree is 15 horizontal yds from the valley bottom but is 3 yds higher than the valley bottom where the deer come through.

Look down at the deer......and imagine the path the arrow is going to take THROUGH the animal. Then do as everyone else has been telling you. Aim for the exit hole.
This probably don't tell you nothingbut that don't tell me nothing. In each of the shotsI listed, the exit hole location is different. My question and I don't understand why nobody understands this is... Whereshould that exit hole be for each shot listed? Enterance has got this all jammed up so how about forget that and just tell me where the exit should be? I'll draw a straight line and figure out how to get there.

Nobody's making this hard, but you.
Then you obviously did not read the responses. One guy told me one thing and another guy told me another thing. Then one of those 2 guys told me that the reason he told me to aim for the wrong vitals was because "it's hard to explain online." That is not a justifiable reason for why you gave someone misinformation. The real reason why the wrong answer was given was because the shot scenario was not even visualized to begin with like was asked. Why give an answer if you don't even really think about the question?

You tell me Jeff, since I've read many of your posts and you seem to know your left from your right and your north from your south and are pretty good with the language (I don't mean to patronizeby this statement, take it literally)... Anyway, on a deer thatis 20 yards out and quartering away at a severe 65 degree angle while you are 30 feet up higher in elevation than that deer, would you aim for an exit hole that isbehind the far shoulder?and why or why not?
