A little test

"J" · Dec 6, 2012

I'm on FB and have subscribed too the TenPoint page and they posted a picture and asked if you would shoot or pass on the buck (With the posittion it's showing at that point) it would be a 35 yard shot from the ground with your bow..... Take a look and let me know your thoughts... WOuld you shoot or pass this exact shot????

Not trying too push their FB page just was reading some of the posts people put up and was curious as too your take on it.....

I would probably pass this shot and wait for a better one and end up losing any chance to shoot at all. Seems like my modus operandi.....

I'd pass..looks like the only clear spot to shoot would be heading right towards the shoulder.

With an arrow or bolt it's a pass. With a bullet it's a dead deer.

Unfortunately, pass.

Yes, what Sam said.

I posted I would of passed as well.... WHat shocked me is the amount of people who said they'd shoot..... From what I'd seen it was about 75% that would of flung an arrow at him.....

I'm with you, I believe I can make that should and would if I felt I had to. But I'm waiting otherwise. He'll present a better shot! And like Sam said, with a gun he'd dead!!!

Milo · Dec 6, 2012

It would have to be with my rig only thats for sure.

I see enough of an opening under/behind that limb to tuck an arrow just behind the crease. At 35 yds however, I would NOT take that shot. There'd just be too much arc to confidently eliminate that branch as an obstacle, IMO. At 25 yds and closer I'll take that shot in a heartbeat, though.

It would have to be a pass for me TOO, now if it was with the ultimag he would be dead!

im with JBrown inside 25 hes mine but 35 is too risky especially if he jumps the string a lil.No brainer with a bullet, I would shoot him all day

huntn2 · Dec 6, 2012

I won't take the shot with a bow. Gun, yes.

Ditto for me TOO! With my muzzy or shotgun that's a dead deer at 135 yards. Not that I'm a great shot but my guns are dialed in pretty well.

small chance you could get the jugular, but his leg is in front of the heart.

I'd pass and hope he turns a little more.
