Nope, let fly. You have to. The only spine shot that I have had was with a rifle, but it doesn't matter the weapon, mercy arrows, mercy bullets are a must.

Im gonna finish eatin my lunch and climb down to end it with a knife to the throat..

any shot i take and can get a follow up, i'll surely take.....

i believe 2 BAD arrows is better than 1 BAD arrow...thats why i have 40 and 50yd pins on my bow besides for target shooting...

If i had another shot i would, and if it somehow ran a few yards say into a bush? behind a tree or w/e i would get to it as soon as possible and finish it with my knife or shoot again when i had a shot. I would try to kill the deer as quickly as possible.

I hate it when people on TV just let the deer squirm around while its 20 yards in front of them.

So question....You take a shot at a 20 yard broadside deer..hit a little high and spine it. It starts to struggle to get up. You nock another arrow and let fly into the lungs/heart of the chest cavity. Do you sling a third arrow? If so, why?

I see no need once the vitals are hit. The deer will bleed out and die before you even get down and over to it...another arrow seems almost excessive to me. To each his own, but my bow hits the hook after the first shot to the vitals.

Ive spine shot a deer it was straight below my stand and I aimed for it. I followed it up quick with a double lung shot. But if need be I would empty my quiver on any deer that was wounded to finish it off.
