Thanks for posting this just to remind everyone that a 35 yrd shot is too long for most people to successfully be consistent in making without wounding an animal. These kind of shots must be practiced daily to be used in an everyday hunting situation. Remember guys a bow is more effective the CLOSER you are to your target and is a short range weapon. I'm not going to beat up the poster of this thread because he has obviously learned from his admitted mistake and I'm sorry for his loss of an animal who could have very well survived the shot. I have seen deer survive complete pass through shots that have missed any vitals. Bad shots happen to us all, it's what you take away from them that counts! Have a great season!
Live it up! Deerwoods Doug
