RE: If you have to
 

Not from this angle. It can be done, I've done it. Got lucky. Dead deer. Following season I wounded some. learned my lesson,never again. Broadside, quartering away or no shot! It's not worth the anguish I felt when I failed to recover a deer, not worth it at all!

RE: If you have to
 

Yap, its a real easy shot, put it right here. This deer ran 30 yards.

RE: If you have to
 

Come on Huntinman dont be oneshotlightsout....Thats could possibly wound the deer very bad..

RE: If you have to
 

Thats a misconception, its a high %age shot. I've made it many times.

RE: If you have to
 

ok not to make any enemy's or anything but lets play a little game called Name that killer "LOSER" lol jk delete this reply i was just being an ass

RE: If you have to
 

I have not shot a deer yet with any weapon i would think of it hard sorry to say. last year i missed twice both bucks both broadside 15 yard shots.

I would say no but when in the woods the buck fever might get the best of me. Got to say what part of season it is should not matter a bad shot is a bad shot.

I'd wait till he turned. He's not going to stand there forever.

RE: If you have to
 

everybody i would not take this shot ever but i wanted to know what everyone else thought about it

RE: If you have to
 

personally i dont take this shot because i know i wont kill the deer in a proper way. (unless it is literally like under 5 yards then i might think about a brisket shot, but prolly wont take it b/c lack of confidence in its success.)

RE: If you have to
 

Deer don't turn broadside in Ky?

It is not a high percentage shot for the overwhelming majority of hunters.
Very small margin of error especially when compared to a broadside or quartering away.
Even when lucky and fatal, I bet the recovery rate is lower as well.
