[Redhunter1012]

I shot a doe from 140 yards right through the heart with a browning 20 guage with a field barrel and a foster style slug.

[teambringit33]

I was playing on the target range, shooting 55 yards. Put one in there nice, right in the bullseye. Next shot, hooded that one. I was excited in a way, but those GT pro arrows ain't cheap.

[coonskinner]

hmmmm kinda funny i guess but when i was shootin indoor competetion with my viking compound...it got to the point where robinhoods were just another "x" and i really didnt think much of the robinhoods after awhile as much as i did the "x"...of course goin to the 5 spot was the cure for ruinin arrahs...talk bout a hard job...pullin the good arrah out the ruined one tryin tuh salvage something outta the damage,but i guess that was kinda amazin shots...:mischeif:

[teambringit33]

yeah didn't mean to make it sound like I do it all the time, just one of those lucky ones we get now and again.

[coonskinner]

actually the single spot target cost me points from time to time when an arrah bounced off the arrah in the x and out of the bullseye...cure:go to 5 spot...no more losing points,no more ruining arrahs...it prolly upped my score at least 1 point every match going to 5 spot...:mischeif:

[NKhunter]

My most amazing shot/shots was the five arrows I shot at the first doe dumb enough to stand there watching arrows landing in the ground all around her. Then to add insult to injury she walked up to my ladder stand, put her hooves on a step and looked up at the shaking idiot at the top of it. Funny thing is next day I shot a 127" 9 point from the ground, peeked around the corner of the woods seen him browsing with does. Master hunter that I am I kneeled down pull out my grunt tube and leaned against the fence post at the corner of the woods for concealment, I calmly grunted a few times then fell over sideways because the wooden fence post was rotten at the ground. I get back up figuring to see 3 white tails waving good bye but instead the son of a gun comes charging in to 9 yards and I managed to not miss that time. I shot him right head on in the brisket, he wheeled around to run away and as if in slow motion I can see garden hose amounts of blood spraying out of his front chest. He takes about a dozen gaits and did the hokey pokey and fell over. Worst case of the shakes I have ever had, ground level, first deer with bow.

[hunTer06]

my longest bow shot...one time I walked over to the neighbors porch and was talking to him. I had been shooting in our yard before I walked over. I had my bow and 6 arrows in my hand so I couldnt resist. Used the rangefinder saw it was 82 yards!! (from his porch to the target) Shot all 6 arrows and hit the target everytime. I amazed myself to say the least.

[Jimmy]

I once made a half court shot.

[buckbacks]

i won a prize at the fair with the air gun.

[whitesnake]

All my shots are amazing. When I miss it is amazing and when I hit is is amazing. I just love to shot my bow. I think it is amazing to watch that arrow fly through the air.

[swantucky]

I have a couple.....
Hit a blackbird with a handball at 15 yards, it fell over dead.
When I was a kid I hit a rabbit on the run with my homemade bow.
When I did alot of woodchuck hunting I hit one right in the head at 126 yards with my 22 mag.
3 years ago I dumped a doe at 237 yards with my muzzleloader.

[Hoytme2]

How about that cow Swantucky? That was a hell of a shot.... or should I say shots?

[coonskinner]

Now that's what you call a PRO, he's got SKILLS! :bowdown:

[coonskinner]

this was in 1964 most anything was legal back then...an archers took long long shots...it was very different from tuhday but for me it was a gradual adaption to what is right tuhday...there were no bleedin hearts back in 1964...:mischeif:

[Hunter85]

The furthest shot i took was an 85 yard shot at a buck with my crossbow. I didnt even think that i hit him but my dad and my cousin were with me cause we were walking back from hunting and he saw that i did. We found him the next day dead. I would never have taken that far of a shot with a crossbow but it was the second to last day of archery season so my dad told me to take the shot. It was my first buck killed and was a very exciting one.

[hunter333]

My farthest attempt was when i was shooting my compund at a block 60 yards away.....it the very bottom...:16suspect1: :16suspect1:

[hunter7]

my farthest attempt was 75 yards at a doe .....and somehow double lunged her

:mischeif: wow :mischeif:

[coonskinner]

back in 1964 we,(me an the deadhead) shot 100yds...and...straight up in the air too...9 out of 10 times we seen the arrah all the way up to the highest point then all the way down til it stuck in ground...but on the tenth arrah...:yikes:

[hunter7]

i normally wouldnt hav shot that far but bow season was almost over and i still had a doe tag

[OhioHunter88]

I dont shoot very far, I'll sight in for the maximum of 40 yards, but one day i was over at Hunter85's and he talked me into shootin into the air and amazingly we found the arrow...

[Bowhunter57]

I've made some 80 and 90 yard shots on 3-D targes. Man, that's a long time to wait to see if the arrow is going to get there or not. :cheeky-smiley-022:

I shot a groundhog that was standing in front of his hole, on a mound of dirt, at about 28 yards. It wasn't a hard shot, as I was standing out in the open on a dirt lane, but when the arrow struck him in the chest it pinned him to the dirt mound behind him. His instant reaction was to grab the arrow with both hands, like they do in a Cowboy & Indian movie. Being pinned he was struggling to get free of the arrow and was "dancing" around like they did in the old C&I movies' poor acting.

I guess you had to be there, but it struck me funny the way he was squirmin' around and I was laughing so hard that I couldn't get a second arrow on the string to hit him again to keep him from running off with my arrow. :D

Good hunting, Bowhunter57

[OHBOW76]

My two best shots ever were with a bow, One raccoon through the head at 18 yds on the ground, and one grey squirrel straight on skewered like a shishkabob with my blunt tip at 12 yds.

I have the edge on my father with the bow, but with a gun, he has me easily. Any guy that goes out hunting grouse with 32. caliber kentucky long rifle and takes head shots is pretty good in my book (they arent flying shots).

[rjolenic]

Tis past November after coming home from deer camp, I spotted a ground hog that was eating the inside of a pumpkin I had thrown out in my woods. I quick grabbed my bow went out back got to 45 yards, let the arrow fly and hit him right behind the left shoulder. :whistle:

He didn't go but 5 yards. :yikes:

[Q2XL]

[rjolenic]

[rjolenic]

I can't say for sure what month it will be that me and Hoytme2 make the trip down to Logan, but we already decided that we are going to make the trip during the 3-D season.

I will have to check on Dundee, but we should be good to go for most months.

Excluding turkey season .... :mischeif:

[Q2XL]

[coonskinner]

[hunter333]

[bowtech_buster]

my longest kill shot was on a mule deer doe 2 years ago with my bowtech extreme vft i shot her at 89 yards and my best shot ever happend just this past deer season i was walkin out of the field one morning and a pheasant flew up and i smoked it with the ole bow and arrah but i was ready for him cause i had seen him land and thats why i left my treestand

[ohiotrapper1984]

My best kill was at a groundhog with my x tec he was at 40 yrds. Sounds easy right but the 40 mph cross wind was the trouble I let the arow fly and pinded him to the ground right behind the ear I couldent beleave it.

[Huber920]

I once shot a sparrow with my bb gun in mid flight at about 30 yards or so above me. Obviously this was not skill, but extreme luck. It landed in the pond and a bass came up and ate it!
