Dave, I'd give the guy/kid props for not taking the shot if he wasn't 100% sure.
A lot of people get caught up in the moment and sling arrows when they shouldn't.
Don't worry Mike, that's what I told him. I told him exactly where the deer would come from, and they did. We have landscaping markers at 20, 30, and 40 yards in the beans for reference. I'm glad he didn't shoot if he didn't feel right about it. I told him that the cousin in me HAD to give him grief about not shooting, but the sportsman in me is glad that he did not shoot if he didn't feel "right" about the shot.
