so how can you determine that one is more difficult than the other? sounds pretty equal to me, which was my whole point.
fact is pointing a scope at the vitals and pulling the trigger generally results in a harvested deer.
dont I wish that was true. I have missed deer at 30 yds w/ a rifle, and I practice and check my zero all year long. I also missed a great deer on a trip of a lifletime in 07' w/ a 308, dont know why ,gun was on , solid rest, just missed at 150yds. Put a me in a stand w/ my bow, within 30yds from a funnel or trail ,and any deer(I want) that walks by is taking a dirt nap.
