Shot placement
Where do you aim for quartering toward and quartering away shots
|
Quartering towards you is a no shot situation...
Quartering away I aim so the arrow exits just behind the opposite leg... |
I try not to take quartering to shots with my bow, to many problems (i.e. hit in chest or shoulder, or bad gut shot).
As for my quartering away, I aim so that the arrow goes into the opposite shoulder. |
i only took a quartering to shot once, i got one lung and i did recover him easily. but now that i am more experienced i dont reccomend it. what these guys said about quartering away.
|
Good advise,Thanks
|
quartering away shots IMO are the best, the angle gives you quite a bit of room for error.
but aim for the vitals! haha and try not to hit the shoulder. http://www.deerhunting.ws/drawart.jpg |

The exit hole. If you can hit it and exit it through the back of the far lung, good. If not it's not a shot. Always aim for the exit hole and you'll be fine.

Well personally i LOVE quartering away shots, just look at the far shoulder and try to hit it.. quartering to you shots are nice for me also, the set up i have for my bow i can shoot trhough both shoulders and pass through fine so i just aim for the shoulder and the opposit side lung if you can.. just my .02.. alot of people wouldnt agree with me but i've shot 5 deer quartering to me and i recovered them within 80 yards..
