close shots??
 

hey guys what is the closest bow shot u have ever made? im asking because i have a blind setup where there is a possibility of getting shots as close as 3 yrds

RE: close shots??
 

5 yds from the ground. 12 yds from a treestand.

RE: close shots??
 

5 yrds from the ground and almost straight down with a stand

RE: close shots??
 

7 yards on the ground.

wow close shots guys i think i may have trouble keeping quite and still if one comes as close as 3 yrds esp shooting my bow

RE: close shots??
 

3 yards, from a double bull:)

I knifed a doe from my DB, she only went 30 yards or so.:)

Let's not forget the time I grabbed that hen by the neck either.[8D]

RE: close shots??
 

Pretty much straight down from my 15 foot treestand, so about 4 or 5 yards.

RE: close shots??
 

Almost straight down from a 12' tree stand.

you have got to be kidding me with a knife

RE: close shots??
 

I would say 7-8 yards from the ground and probably 2 yards from my treestand ( my first bow kill and I made a poor shot choice as I pretty much shot straight down)

RE: close shots??
 

Probably 5-6yds from a treestand.

If you're gonna take 3yd shots from the ground......shoot a couple practice shots. You might be surprised which pin you'll use.

RE: close shots??
 

Or practice not using one.

RE: close shots??
 

Directly underneath me. And frankly I won't attempt the shot any more.... if they are that close, than at some point they are going to be at about the right distance again. I prefer, from a treestand, not shooting at anything inside about 8 or 9 yards. I don't tend to climb or set stands too high anymore... usually about 12-17 feet...

From the ground blind, my closest is about 20. For whatever reason I've just never gotten one right on top of me with the ground blind.

ur right ill practice at a few yards today

6' on the ground and 10' in a stand. Both times I could have sworn the deer was going to hear my heart pounding!
