i know i haven't hunted nearly as long as most on here but last year i missed on a 150 class buck @ 22 yards. shot wayy under him. Last year i missed a doe @ 20 yards. just over her back. oh well thats why they call it hunting not killing.

20 yards. I had a large doe perfectly broadside. Release the arrow and see it hit a small vine and veer right over her back. That is what I get for not clearing my shooting lane before the season.

Four yards from the base of tree. I drew back, bent over,turned for the shot. Virtually straight down.Limb of my bow hit my seat post on release. Shot under the deer. It was LOUD!
Oh, I have more if you want. But that was the closest. After 22 years of bow hunting I have plenty, believe me. Missing is part of it.
