I had a 15 yrd shot at and blew it. I was compensating for the height of my tree stand and shot about an inch low, I couldn't believe it. .

Why would you compensate for the height of your tree stand?

If he's 15 yards, you bend at the waist and shoot for 15 yards, no compensation regardless of the height your at. You pick a hair and give it to him. The only thing to consider is the path of the arrow through the deer and you pick the appropriate hair. Sorry to hear that tho, give that stand a day or so, or move toward where they came from. When they get to where you were, they may skirt it. Or they may not, that's the thing about hunting, no guarantees.
