Frontal shot archery

[Jbehredt]

Nice thing about the long frontal is it opens the door for a ham blaster when he turns. The real tear jerking hero shot.

Stop watching YouTubers do dumb stuff, 70 yard frontal falls in the dumb stuff category. If you want to shoot at elk in all positions and conditions, pick up a rifle, archery isn’t for you. A lot and I mean a lot of archery encounters end with never loosing an arrow, it’s our responsibility to take responsible shots, sounds like you made the correct decision, hitting a softball sized target on demand in field conditions is a tall order for even the best of shots at 70 yards

I have killed several bulls with the frontal shot from close range and they have all fallen in sight. That being said, I would have a hard time taking a broadside shot at 70 yards, let alone a frontal shot. I think that you made the right choice in passing on it.

No way

hard no

It would be tough to take a frontal shot if he was broadside.

It’s possible if you shoot FMJ’s or old school aluminums

 

[HiMtnHntr]

You did the right thing.

Geeze bud. Please don’t be that guy

Frontal at 70 is not considered an “opportunity to shoot a bull”.

70 yards with training wheels is basically like a 30 yard for an actual bow, right? Send it bruh!
Ha just kidding!

Hypothetically if with my longbow I'm passing a frontal unless it's an absolute chip shot.
