Been there done that... You don't kill over 100 deer with a bow and not make a mistake or two

All thow there are quite a few perfect deer hunters hear on the forum that never do anything questionable

Even if you wait until the deer is in range/position you may still have to hold if it makes a sudden turn where they no longer present a clean shot.
They will certainly move, if you fiddly fart around long enough trying to aim.

Get that pin on the spot and get rid of the arrow. Getting on target and the shot off quick is something else that needs to be practiced, and few people do it. Three seconds or less. That's all it should take from the time you hit anchor to get the pin on target and release the arrow.

if it was me I would of took the shot anyways....cause at 25 yrds you shouldnt be missing anyway...and how do you know your gonna miss if you dont shoot.
Anything can happen when your in this particular situation. So your saying take the shot if your moving all over, and can't hold the pin steady?

and longbeard, you think hunting on private land is a mistake let alone taking this shot.

another hunter who hunts only public land, with a lot of common misconceptions. Sorry Longbeard, you just don't have a clue.

No shot. You owe it to the deer to take the best shot possible.

You've been watching too many TV hunters. Drawing back and holding for 10 minutes while waiting for the deer to move on in, ragged breathing into the microphone, close up of the finger tightening on the release to heighten the suspense of the moment and all the while the dramatic music plays in the background, quickening to a climactic crescendo.... Hollywoooood!

This is an excellent example of why I refuse to draw until the deer is in range and in position. Draw, aim, shoot. Bing, bing, bing. Just like that.


I draw, aim, and shoot.Bing, bing, bing, just like you. I never draw when deer is out of range.
