I'm in no way critizing your shot, just curious

i voted yes for all three. Where HP marked for rifle and muzzy and about 2" back for archery

[boneaddict]

I can't see where he marked (off lunch break) but I'd put it about where that blade of grass crosses (front one across mid section).

LOL, sounds like you can see it

Yes to the rifle and muzzy.  No on the archery, but one more step ... quartering away is my favorite shot, lining up on the offside scapula-humerus joint.

[boneaddict]

I'd certainly respect any archer that votes no.  I'd let fly about the same spot and his forward momentum should put it in there.  You better be one confident shooter though and the fact I am shooting by instinct helps.  I'd imagine a bunch of folks putting it through there peeps, following the deer and smucking the tree to the right.  Honestly I think shooting Trad gear gives you the advantage on this shot.  Just my opinion

one more step and yes to all three.  The X is too far forward for archery you are going to get one lung and exit in front of the far shoulder...and be tracking forever.  Snow helps, but I'd wait another step and hold at least 8 inches father back.  IMO

I'm not a bow hunter so I didn't vote for that but yes to muzzy and rifle.

[jackelope]

i voted no on the bow shot until he took 1 more step, yes to rifle and muzz. i think phools shot is a touch to far forward to be a perfect kill shot on a quartering away animal, although it'd likely do the job with either of the guns.

[Jamieb]

I voted yes to bow, muzzy, and rifle.

One more step and I would fling that arrow.  I think I would aim just a little farther back though.
