Buckeyebozo; We thought you were gone for good. Things were really nice and then you have to show up again.

I have taken neck shots on most of my deer with my .44 and ALL have dropped right there, but I would never aim for the neck with any bow.

Default Passed that shot

I had to wait a year longer than I wanted to take my first deer with a crossbow (Monday 9/14/09) because I refused to take a 30 yard straight-on neck/chest shot early in the season last year. I would have regretted taking such a shot even though I'm confident my TenPoint Shadow CLS will put an arrow exactly where I'm holding out to 50 yards. Ethical hunting is the only satisfying hunting. My first shot was quartering away at 27 yards. Nice doe went 30 yards, stopped and fell over dead five seconds later. It was a rush. And for those still asking about broadheads, I shoot G5s and they are accurate, precise and leave massive wounds.
