hey welcome to the site. Their blood is clotting and thats why the blood trail slows down. You really need to practice to make sure you are consistant when shooting. Also you wanna get pass throughs you might be hitting the deer too far back.
i have been practicing from ten to 40 yards an im grouping very well 10 to 30 dead on 40 is a group the size of a dip can but 10 to 30 touching shafts. but i have been reading alot about hieght could that be making a difficultly with angles??? thanks
Welcome to the forum! I'm glad your getting out and enjoying Bowhunting. A few questions for you. How sharp are your broadheads? How far of shots have you taken at these deer. What kind of shots have they been? (broadside, quartering away or towards, walking, etc.)
the first one was quatered away from me at twenty. the second was broadside at 30. the third was faceing me at twenty. my broadheads are brand new out the pack the will shave hair. im thinking i might be hittin to high im sitting right around 25 feet mark where should i aim at ten twenty marks ? thanks
