I was out hunting tonight, and at about 5:30, I had a doe come oout at 26 yards. When I shot, she ducked, and my arrow went over her back, a clean miss. The Luminok worked great. My question is, what do you do after the shot, now you have this arrow 26 yards out from your stand with a bright red beacon on the top of it, and I still have an hour or better left to hunt. Do you get down and go get it, or do you just leave it out there until you get down at the end of your hunt? And if you do leave it out there, will it spook any passing deer after that?

you leave it

I would leave it also.

i would have to leave it the deer might not be scared of it well at least not as scared as if you got down from your stand to retreive it.

If you are a really good shot, you can try and shut it off by Robinhooding it promply after your clean miss.

well a couple of weeks ago I did about the same thing only I just missed.
I left the arrow there with the nock on about 45 mintues later three does came by like they never seen it.
good hunting
