Maybe you and BigSpike should get together and go to a 3D tournament or two. I will tell you that you can't shoot. Never take a questionable shot. As a hunter, you owe that to the deer. You can grunt to make one stop.

Seeing as how you have lost 2/3 of your tags in each of the last two years, I would be hard pressed to believe you have killed more than someone has in tweny years. There is no need to throw stones, but you do need to figure out what is going on. Try a regular bow with a Muzzy. My brother and I have shot 3 so far this year that ran less than 50 yards each. Hunting is about gathering the animal for you to eat, not the buzzards and coyotes.

Bad luck does happen but most of the time it is the shooters fault. I just could not imagine loosing deer after deer.

Sometimes it just happens. Every bow hunter that I know personally has lost a deer here and there through the years.
Although we should diligently try to recover every deer every time, I only consider it a real 'problem' when it doesn't bother the hunter to lose a deer anymore.
Personally when I lose a deer I spend a sleepless night or two feeling bad about it. Although I couldn't tell you half of the deer I've harvested, i can remember EVERY deer that I've lost.
Sometimes it's equipment, sometimes the deer just outsmarts the tracker, sometimes it's just bad luck, sometimes it's poor shot placement, sometimes it's rain on a bloodtrail, sometimes it's any number of other things.
Sometimes it just happens.

i am going 2 sleep great
