Default Has this ever happened before...not prepared?

You have tuned and tightened up for an entire offseason. You can hit a nickel at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 yards. The first Sat of bowseason and a doe or shooter buck givesyou a shot at 5 yards directly below your treestand. Are you ready?Youcan drive tacks at 20-30 yds but are you readyfor the short shot?? I may need to practice. What sayeth the hunting.net world???

I practice a lot of in tight shots, because many of my setups offer them.
