RE: How many actually pick a spot?
Reading all thisI realizethat you're all basically saying the same thing just in a different ways. Language whether written or spoken can be interpreted differently depending on the interpreter. So... the same sentence can be taken differently by two people who in fact are on the same side. Twisted aint it?
I do get what GMMAT is saying though. If you pick a tuft of hair to aim at, your pin covers it up anyway so what's the point in having to pick out that tuft if you already know where your arrow should impact? It's not like those who don't "pick a spot" just put the deer in the pin guard and let loose. They ARE looking at where the pin falls on the body of that deer.
