Default RE: Question for Traditional Hunters

My first, and only, bow kill to date was a squrriel. I was shooting in my gramp's backyard and there were some squirrels running around on the back end. When they'd get in his yard I'd sneak down there and take a shot. There was this one squirrel in particular that kept coming back and I kept going after. I missed him three times from distances of about ten or fifteen yards. On the fourth time, however, I nailed him square in the chest. The reason I kept missing was that the squirrel was standing, and I was aiming at the chest. The buggers are so quick he was gone before the arrow got there. The time I hit him I realized he was going to drop so I actually aimed at his stomach. Little guy ducks right into it. Haven't had but one shot opportunity and deer, and I don't want to talk about that one right now.
