"X" Marks the spot III

[cnelk]

30 yds - light wind is in your favor - obviously relaxed

[Lark Bunting]

Wait for that front left leg to take a step forward.

[JJ Overkill]

all day long, perfect shot @30yds.

[Willie makit]

Wait til turns more, shoulder too much gamble, condition in my favor to wait. Plus log right there in front of her so she most likely will turn rather that even step over it, making broadside shot.

[Swede]

She is relaxed and not aware of my presence. Still I don't like her looking my way. If I want her, I will wait until she is reaching down for another bite or looking away. The angle is not a problem, but I would shoot just to the right of Jerinmn.

[>>>---WW---->]

I made that exact shot where Jeremy placed his X at 8 yards. Trust me, they don't go far. But at 30 yards I would not try it. I'm presuming we are able to get the bow drawn back without being detected.

[stringunner]

I would shoot where jerinmn put the X, but I will also say that 30 yards for this angle and situation is right at the line of my confidence level. Any further and I would wait.

[Huntrgathr]

I'm waiting on this one.

[cnelk]

The margin of error on this shot is less up & down and left than it is to the right.
You can see the outline of the scapula and that means danger zone.

There is no frontal shot opportunity here, only where jerinmn's X is at or slightly to the right of it.
At 30yds there are other factors to consider than just to shoot.

She is relaxed and that means you have the advantage of time....

[Trophyhill]

I agree with Jeremy's placement and cnelk's explanation

[Toby]

I would wait until she turns, she is pretty relaxed, no need to hurry. Rushing shots never has a good outcome for me.

[jmez]

I would wait on this one.

[WapitiTalk1]

'Chewing on a piece of grass, walking down the roo-oo-oad'. From the 70s Band America song Ventura Highway . I'm waiting on this harvest also. She'll turn.

[JGH]

How did you get drawn on this shot?

I'd wait on this one ... she'll step forward to take another bite, and the log will turn her a bit.

[otcWill]

I'd wait. She's calm. I should end up with either a broadside or frontal here. Otherwise, I'm greatful for the encounter and watch her walk away; a totally successful hunt
