I would pass, until He turned his head or drop it to feed. I would also wait for him to turn his body for a better broadside. For Me I don't like that hard angle.. I want a 100% double lunge or double lunge Heart shot...

Ditto! (for the deer)

Not saying taking the shot would be a bad thing. Just saying I would probably wait for a step or two to get him just a tad more broadside.

I would shoot the yote in that position in a heartbeat and probably lower than the red dot and a tad higher than the black dot. I would hope since he is walking that by the time I drew he would have taken two steps though and be clear of that limb.

yep.  I would use the opposite leg as a reference.

Same here...your red dot is right on Ryan!

I would wait for the buck to present a little better angle. JMO I have seen things go bad in a hurry and spent all night in the woods LOL

 I would wait on the yote to come a couple more steps and take a head shot.

Red dot is right on!  again I'm assuming I'm at full draw and with the coyote at what looks to be around 10yards, he's a dead  dog.

The Deer,   I''m shocked someone would think you wouldn't get an exit wound on that skinny little deer at that angle. I made that shot on a 200+ lb white-tail , and I was shooting my light bow because of a back injury, a 49lb recurve (54lb @ my draw)  and my broadhead was sticking out his the front of his opposite shoulder.....Lungs and Heart, he went 60 yards. @ 15yards, if I'm at full draw and the deer looks at me,  I'll win the speed contest. If he looks at me mid draw, or sooner....well I've lost.  Even have a portion of it on vid.

Red dot on the buck looks perfect, as I always shoot for the "Off Shoulder"...

Experience has shown me a 580 gn arrow tipped with a sharp 250 VPA 3 blade driven by a 55# Kwyk Styk at that distance will have little or no problem making two holes
 
I may pause a bit, while "at or near full draw", to see if he'd turn a little to see if there was a bit of fat on him anywhere... Hard to make a meal of horns and bone. If he did not look a  little better at a different angle, I'd pass on him hoping for something in a bit better condition.

There again, at my age a "good hunt" is not about the kill.... I learned years ago.  "The work starts once they are on the Ground". If I have to work to get it out, it better be good "table fare".

The coyote and red dot are fine with me ... just a couple more steps

steadman,
if you dont mind, id have a pic to go on with.

So, heres a big european wild boar:
   

and this is where i would wanna place my arrow:
     


What you think?

Perfect spot Axel. This slight quartering arrow may hit the offside leg (notice the right leg position) & likely stick or break it. I shoot at the bottom left of the red dot for the heart & prefer just a bit more quartering for passthroughs. Dead hog either way.

Man I like that fat piggy! I like that spot better!

[steadman]

I am no expert on hogs especially, but that's where I'd put an arrow too Axel.  
That's a big pig!
