None, and I honestly can't remember the last time I missed a deer, probably 12 or 14 years or more. I have killed a pile of them.

Turkey Blaster,

Go back and read your post. The way you describe your shot makes it seem like you just flung an arrow out there and hoped for the best. I understand you want to get that first deer under your belt with a bow. Everyone who bowhunts has been there. Keep practicing, continue to learn from your mistakes and you will bag one!

Turketblaster.You shoot at animals because you're bored.Turkeys at 85 yards. You're buddy shoots his dog becaus it follows him to his tree stand. [X(] What's up with you youngens from Tenn.?

Also on the Broad head succes poll you said you took the doe at 40 yards.

sorry, I forgot to mention the whitetail doe @ 40 yards with the rocket aerohead.
Is this the same doe you just said you missed?

O.K. I cant stand it any longer, I have to ask.
Mow em down, Why are you shooting at a running deer when you KNOW
that you and your buddy are using the wrong choke?

Just curious

Nah, I am not the ethics police but some of the stuff I hear from these people just makes me wonder what the hell they are thinking.

And I realize that part of this thread is joking but TB's in particular was not a joke and I just want to call him out on it.

TurkeyBlaster reason for taking a 85 yard shot at a Turkey?

I wanted to kill a turkey very badly.
I know you got the bird, right??

Turkeyblaster,
Taking shots like the ones you described are inexcusable. I don't care if you've never gotten a deer before.
