Default RE: Where do you aim?

I aim for the exit hole or where I want it to be! The lower third of the vitals. This way if he/she " jumps the string" , the first reaction is down. They will drop their entire body depth in a flash. This reaction causes most hunters to think they shot high.I saw an article once about the speed needed to " overcome " this reaction. Now i know that you can' t believe all you read but they calculated a bow speed of like 600+ fps is needed to beat a deer to the punch at 15 yds. I shoot the same setup for 3D as hunting (300+) and have had low aimpoints end up high vital hits at under 20 so I can see the reasoning.This seems to work for me.
