The trick to a deer not jumping the string is to shoot at a relaxed deer with a quiet bow...

Deer are no faster, smarter or tougher to kill then they have ever been...

I killed them with a recruve back in the late 60s and early 70s...
My first compound was a Bear Whitetail that I bought in 1975...
I killed over 50 deer with that bow...My current bow is about 15 years old, I still shoot fingers so I can't shoot todays "fast" bows...

I haven't had a deer jump a string in about 20 years...
