Great shot Jason!  Not wanting to start stuff as I know some are not real hip on those shots, but I shot a bull a few yrs back at about 12 yds straight on.  Arrow went in to the feathers, centered the heart and lungs.  He dropped inside of 35 yds.

Good for you again Jason!!!  I see a new Avatar in your future.

I figured I might get some grief for taking that shot, but how do you argue with results like a dead Elk inside of 60 yards from the shot? In reality ANY shot taken can have it's down falls if you make a mistake. TOO high or LOW or a little left or right, on any shot angle can lead to triumph or tragedy, for a bowhunter.

Elksoung if you have enough horsepower and enough arrow weight, why not take this shot?, now if your shooting 35-45lb's that's another story.

Nice job my friend

Joe you could come visit, but will the kids and dogs I have a full house!  :biglaugh:  

Adam -West central part of the state.  These bulls were just in the right mood at the right time. I had not heard any bugle until I got into them. Heard my first bugle since I killed the bull this a.m.  Good luck!
