Default RE: Aim low from a treestand?

I added a No-Peep last Fall. To me its greatest advantage is in correcting errors in form. I aim in the lower 1/3 of my animals and only errors in distance judgement, and failure to consider the animal will in most cases duck, cause any high hits.

With the No-Peep all I need to do is concentrate on centering the dot in the prisim and my form is correct and I needen' t consider the angular physics of the shot. An earlier message had it absolutely correct aim for the exit hole. I always aim for the the middle of the opposite shoulder on a quartering away shot [ or rib area -broadside shot] of my animals.

Lest you think that the concentration on the No-Peep is just another step that you need to worry about it . . . it becomes automatic. I don' t even notice it any more and the No-Peep is always there as reminder in my pereferal vision and requires no special thought or concentration.
