Hey brother. I use to be a shooter with a bow. I shot 7th in the state in 3D archery in Georgia back in the 90s. I must have drawn that bow 500 times a day every day. I would shoot pencils in half at 30 yards and break knocks and robin hood arrows like it was nothing no sweat, easy peasy. I finally quit bow hunting when me and @captdave77 were sitting in stands in his brothers back yard and I stuck a little 4 point from above through the back left side of the spine and down through his lungs and out his chest and watched him walk away. I waited 45 minutes then got down and went looking for him. Well it got dark and we searched through the night for many hours. Finally found him two years later with the arrow still sticking out of him laying under a bush about 200 yards away from where I shot him. I said I would never bow hunt again after that and I haven't. I only gun hunt now and my deer are DRT they never walk on me with a gun because I hit em in the heart every time. If they do move it is not more than 15 yards.
I know a lot of you guys bow hunt but from my experience a gun is the better way to go. And if you still decide to bow hunt only kill deer in the morning because if you hit em right before the sun goes down you may never find them.Best of luck hunting. We all have to start somewhere but if I had to do it over I would have never picked up a bow for deer.
