Great post hope everyone heeds the advise. Take a high percentage shot or let the deer go by, it would be a shame to have a wounded animal running around the woods.

I agree! Enough can go wrong on the good shots, no sense risking the "iffy" shots!

It's the truth...taking down one (or more) of the three systems that is! :wink:
Which do you prefer?

I like double lung shots for putting them down quick and leaving good blood trails, myself ... though I'll shut down any system, in a pinch! :D

say from 18 ft up and 60 ft out your shooting 62.4 ft down plus the gravity ,so shoot a tad high.Plus from experience they tend to buckle a little,or duck . good luck.
