Absolutely.. Have taken that shot and the bull expired in 45 yards. To each his own, but I'll take that shot anytime it's offered.

Blow him a kiss and send it.
He'll turn or take the arrow over the heart.
Freezer full either way.
Pavement, crowds and inaccurate rifles...
Thanks anyway.

Absolutely and,  I practice that shot on the GlenDel full rut buck out to 25.   Beyond that distance I am not so confident. Made the mistake of passing on it once before at 15 yds and never will again.

Shoot or Don't Shoot?

Nice bull.  I'd let it rip.  The new bows, arrows and sighting allows for the arrow to drop right in, as long as I'm confident of yardage.

Dead bull. Have shot two bulls like that and one went twenty yards and the other 150 or so. Both were dead in a matter of seconds. 500 grain arrow with a snuffer ss is the ticket for me.

I have taken that shot. Once on a spike bull and once on a bear. Both at 20 yards. The bear is on the wall and the spikes skull I s in my skull pile in the barn
