Deer: 12 yds, 36 ft
Bow: 265 fps
Time of flight: .136 seconds

My eyes are horrible, both above 20/70 (but I do wear perscriptions to get them to 20/25 or so)

I shoot 1 green fletch and 2 off-white on a black shaft. The light for the above senario was fading fast, the darkest I have ever shot a deer in fact, about 10 minutes left on a cloudy evening. I saw the arrow just as it hit the deer. It 'seemed' to kick sideways a little bit at impact so I thoughtI had a deflection. I was right, it defectedclose to 30degrees. I wish I had 'imagined' seeing it to deflect.[:-]

Its all about concentration really and everyone is different when you get to that level of focus. Some guy's neurons just cannot fire fast enough to 'catch' those split second images. Then there are the times when you 'know' the shot is good and maybe there is a little 'imagining' involved. When I make a good shot at 75 yards practicing, I 'know' it before the arrow is half way there, then there (almost always)is the satisfying 'tink' of hiting the popcan attatched to the front of the target.
