I missed.......twice!
Had a big ole doe and a button buck come in. She got broadside at 20yds and I let loose. (I aimed just a bit high so it'd come out low) and she belly flops on the ground. I saw the arrow sail over her back.
Then she runs off and ends up 25yds to my left broadside again. I decided to aim a little lower and instead of dropping, she jumps up and takes off like a bullet. This time I saw the arrow go below her.
Checking up on both arrows confimed the misses. I haven't missed in a long time, I take it I was due.

Oh and after the 2nd shot, she came back about 30 minutes later (she never got out of my sight) and I had one last shot opportunity, but hey, if I missed hertwice in 3 minutes time, she deserved to live on.
