Shot Placement Question Part 3

[Tominator]

35 years of bowhunting. the adverage is a 2 on where i hit them and a 5 on where the arrow came out. sometimes when i have shot deer, the arrow didnt always come out perfect. its like it hit a bone and deflected but i still recovered my deer. out of probably 37 deer, 2 antelope, 1 mule deer, 1 wild boar and a bear i shot i have i have recovered all of them. i very happy to have done that.

now some of the animals i have shot at and missed the arrow didnt go where i wanted it to. im sure glad you didnt ask to add our misses..

Thus the need for a 31 yard pin, eh?:angel1:

i would give myself a 3 on entry, i never worry about the exit, ive only shot one deer quartering to me, a quartering shot is not a shot i feel comfortable taking, a broadside shot is my shot, as long as i can put it behind the shoulder a few inches, i know i'l find it.

I give myself a 3 for entry and a 5 on exit. To muddy things a bit... I'd consider 10 being outside the area of vitals say 6" in diameter. Therefore, my exit wound is many times a few inches off from where I thought it'd be. I haven't had one jump a string too bad and haven't shot a deer farther than 25 yards.
