How to shoot deer from a tree stand

P.J. Reilly stands in a tree stand preparing to draw back his hunting bow.
Lancaster Archery Supply TechXPert P.J. Reilly discusses how shot angles are affected by bowhunting deer from an elevated tree stand. Reilly spells out proper shot placement on a deer from ground level to achieve a quick, ethical kill.Then, he shows how arrow placement must change to account for the height in a tree from which a hunter shoots at a deer, and the distance between the hunter and the deer. Knowing the relationship between height, distance and shot angles is critical knowledge for all bowhunters.
