Did better than me Bushy.
I AM a bow hunter and only got 50 the first time.

Maybe your "trailing" leg kept you more steady Bushy. Very Happy

I'm VERY fussy about the kind of shot that I take on deer with a bow.
I let more deer pass than most guys would because I know that I will fill the freezer during rifle season, so most of those shots were new to me.
I would really like to pick up something like this for my Firearms Safety Classes. I think that the kids would learn much from it.
I know that I sure did.
It is one heck of a nice piece of work by whoever did it.

The shots for rifle are the same as for bow...You are still trying to hit the same vitals...It's important for all hunters to know where the vitals are in relation to the profile presented to you by the game. A good knowedge of the animal's (deer, elk, antalope, etc) anatomy is essential for hunters whether archery or rifle.
