Absolutely no shot.

To each their own but I'm a little shocked how many arrows would fly at that angle.
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

If he kept walking after the bark, I’d wait for a better angle as I have the wind. If he stops and just stands in that spot and I’m at full draw already, then I’m shooting where Crunchy put his red dot, just in front of that shoulder. If it was any longer than the 23  yards mentioned, I’d probably not take that shot in this situation.

From the keyboard, I'd consider a shot about 2" towards 4 o'clock from Crunchy's spot.  In the field, I'd likely be waiting for a couple more steps or a whirl-around-and-gone.
