Default RE: Where do you aim ??

What I learned this season is......where you aim on the deer's body.....and where the spot is when the arrow gets there......is sometimes two different places.

I made mistakes early on aiming too high. Nothing wrong with aiming for lung. Nothing at all. But....I had a couple duck on relatively close shots.....and the results were high hits.....long tracks......and worse. I have an unknown out there.

What I learned this year is......my effective range is shorter than I once thought. It's also (in my opinion) better to aim a little lower on the deer. Miss low??? Big deal. Clean miss. Deer ducks? DL......and again...no big deal.

Just what I had to learn the hard way.
