Re: Actual Shot Distance
That's some good data right there. My first impression based on a quick look - it doesn't matter too much what BH you use, if you hit 2 lungs that deer is going to go about 40 to 60 yards. With a few exceptions of course. Good stuff.Horizontal Hunter wrote:This is my second year recording broadhead data on another forum. You might find this interesting:

Re: Actual Shot Distance
This year: I killed a 3 pt buck last Sat that came in and stopped 5 yards from the base of my tree. That one was my first ever harvest with a vertical compound bow. so a good season so far.
Last year, I killed a buck with my vortex at I recall 21 yards; and I sadly lost a doe that I'd hit (it got dark and started pouring rain, but still no excuse though) at about 25 yds.
All shot have been from tree stands between 20 and 30 ft up.
Hopefully I'll have a chance to press the vortex back into service soon to fill some doe tags and freezer space.

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.
