My uncle had a nice buck at 15 yds facing right at him. He drew and decided not to shoot.I was skeptical if whether the arrow could make it through the brisket. Ill do a test sometime and see. I voted yes simply because the question didnt say how sharp the angle was.

Definately. I have always thought that if you are confident in your shot and equipment, don't be afraid to take a shot. It's all about shot placement.

The Buck I took this year was a qautering too shot. It wasn't that steep of an angle but at 20 yards I knew I could put it through. It was a double lung with good blood easy track.I would do it again. But a differant angle maybe not.

I voted yes only because I have done it successfully. I was high in a tree and the buck was only slightly quartered. It only ran 50 yards and went down.

I agree with the fact that there are multiple factors to consider but for my comfort level I would not take a shot at a deer that is giving me a hard quartering to shot. I have taught myself to be patient and most of the time it has paid off.

I'd have to see the shot first. Then I'd let you know.:) I've shot 84 deer with a bow. I've never had to take a shot that I considered quartering to. Doesn't mean I wouldn't. I usually wait until I see what I want. Patience Grasshopper. I voted YES

Yes, but it would depend on the angle

Only if I wanted to wound a deer, walk miles tracking it, and dissappointed in the end.

If it is mostly broadside, slight quartering too, then maybe u would reconsider.
