Here's a test to try.....if you are confident in your shooting abilities.......lol.
Place your movie camera on top of your target.....and turn the sound up to the max.
Go back to (______) yds and fire a few shots at your target. THAT is what the deer hears.
Times that by about 100 from what we can hear. Deer can hear unbelievably!
Is this true Schultzy? I've heard, not from any scholarly sources, thatthe hearing of deer is pretty comprable tothatof a human. I haven't done anyresearch on this, but I was wondering if you have...or if you're just speaking from observation.
The biologists on Quality Whitetails TV discussed this recently. They claim new research found deer hear about the same as humans. The only difference being they can hear higher pitches. So maybe the whistling is louder to them if your broadheads are making a high pitch whistling?

Either way, I don't think it matters.
Saw that show too, Thought the info about deer hearing was very interesting.
