Would this guy be able to thread the needle on a Quartering to shot?

    IMO it's not always about the shooter's ability to make the shot, it's about the unknown and unforseeable reaction of the animal upon the release of that arrow. If he stands still and doesn't move, most bowhunters can make that shot 99% of the time. If the animal ducks, pivots, or both, your ethical target zone has all but been eliminated and you're asking for a poor shot, and a tough recovery.

    Is it worth the chance? IMO no, but that's up for each bowhunter to decide on his own.

    You know It's bad enough the guy is playing with a bow, but the D-head with the camera is in front of him some of the time. :eek::eek::eek:
