        Here’s a fun video I made practicing with broadheads:

          Nice video.

          R2 has legs. If several of you got together you might be able to have a whole deer…

          Or are the CA deer legless??

            That’s cool………

            I like the way you used Ennio Morricone’s music to get the deer to stand still so long:D

              Good shooting Preston. Realistic practice…especially with broadheads is always a great way to get ready for the season.

                That was good! What, no misses? You da man! Love that stump in the video too.

                The Man with NO Name trilogy is an all time favorite of mine. I have the DVD set and watch it almost every year.

                  I left out 2 misses 😆 I’ve started using a gap-point aiming method and it has dramatically increased my accuracy and consistency. It took me a while to admit the “instinctive” thing might not be working so well. Instinctive shooting was just so romantic, but not the best for me.

                  The deer out here definitely have legs, and they use them!

                    Love it! A friend gave me a beat up 3d deer he found in a free pile. I put it in the woods to simulate hunting. Best thing about it is how easy it is to stalk. Love that monster stump. Great job! Dwc

                      Man, it’s interesting 2 of you guys have mentioned the stump. Unfortunately there’s too many gigantic stumps with flat tops to them around here. I would’ve loved to see these port-orford cedar woods before they were cut. Only 4% of the original old-growth redwoods remain, and man are they spectacular.

                        One target endless possibilities, like it.

                        Would have been quite something to see those cedar before they were cut.

                        Very interesting to see the arrow flight from that angle.

                        Mark.
