RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
I would have to wait for a better shot on#5 looks like he was feeding.

RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
My 2006 buck was almost exactly the scenario as #5. I was 16ft up and he was about 8yds out. I put the arrow where GMMAT put the red dot and it poked through between the brisket and offside shoulder. He was down in 100yds.

RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
ORIGINAL: GMMAT without reading all the posts, #5 seems high to me as well |
RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
ORIGINAL: GMMAT No problem, PT.....I just felt like the angle shown was from lower than I called out (20'). From the angle shown.....I like you height.....but I'd aim right of where your blue dot is. Dead deer.;) Look at that headgear! I hope I get that shot, this year!:D Jeff, I got that deer on video three different times that year and wasn't going to shoot him but as the last weekend of season came he got an arrow. He was a decent deer but was only 2 1/2 andonly went in the 90's |
RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
I always shoot for the front of theopposite shoulder on a quartering away shot.
If I can see that my arrow will enter too far back on the loins on that line to the opposite front shoulder,the deer is quartering to hard. I won't take that shot. Great thread Jeff. I always have trouble convincing myself to take the "quartering to" shot. |

Cool exercise..looks like to much work to play along though.
Besides there are way to many tree limbs in many of them shots..yeah I know it's hypothetical ;) |
RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
Yeah but they will lose 10 pounds in the heat! In a way, I'm glad VA's season doesn't start until October 4th. It is still warm but it is a tad cooler.:) :eek::D;) |
RE: Aim for the exit hole....an interactive exercise
I would take any of those shots inside 30 yds. Oct 4th is a long ways from now it seems!
