RE: Shooting through brush...
Shoot through brush, it won't work. You don't believe me, go out in the yard and try to shoot "THROUGH" a limb, briars anything. You more than likely will not make it most of the time. Arrows will be broken or lost, critters wounded or missed etc. I don't shoot through brush.... but I will shoot through HOLES in the brush, big difference.

RE: Shooting through brush...
My bow is very quiet. Deer don't here it. Shot a deer once, twice through brush. The first was a clean miss, the second won me a contest. It actually came back to see what hit the ground:D I practise the shot and before anyone jumps on this, ask yourself first, have I ever missed? I'd practised the shot during the summer knowing it would have to be made.
Ever read any Howar Hill books?:DHe's a guy I could hunt with. Even at a 50% hit ratio I'm still 100% better than him. LOL:DHe won a few things too. "Man needs to know his limitations" :D |

DT, just keep that Rage on the front and you can go through anything that is 8 inch in diameter or less. Brush, trees, rocks, its all good.

Brush no way! A thin cover of river canes...yes at close range. Rattled in an killed a 7 pt. buck from the ground, had to shoot through a very thin cover of thin, fragile canes or weeds. But a big difference between brush and fragile canes. The canes were all but dead, brush doesn't forgive.

I have shot deer on the other side of brush.The brush covered the kill zone,BUT I could still see the kill zone.The key was I KNOW my arrow trajectory and I shot OVER the brush and hit the heart and lungs of the doe.She went 20 yards.;)
The situation dictates the course of action I will take. Know your eqipment,know your limitations,know the equipments limitations,know trajectory and make informed decisions from there. |
RE: Shooting through brush...
I see what TFOX is saying. Brush in the sight path and brush in the flight path are two different things. But to deliberately shoot "through" brush is totally irresponsible. I don't care what the situation is. And a leaf or two is not what I consider brush.
