- www.crossbownation.com On this segment of Crossbow Safety and Education we take a look at shot placement. Know where to shoot the animal you are hunting is an important part of crossbow hunting. The whitetail deer is the most hunted big game animal in the world, so we thought we would help you newbies out on where to shoot a deer with a crossbow and why. Even you gun guys that are now hunting with a crossbow will want to watch.

The crossbow went together quickly and the general fit and finish is a bit above what I expected for the price. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx5B43Qabqt1HedUJyfEqxiwBCfaooIH52 The adjustable stock is a little loose. I had an issue when I tried to cock the bow for the first time with the safety on. The string set in the trap box, held just enough to build up enough tension to rip the string out of my hands when it let go. No significant damage was done, and once I got it sighted in, I wrecked a couple bolts by sending one straight down the shaft of the first. I'm holding ~2" groups at around 50 yards, and I'm not an expert by any means. Best part is that they supply all the replacements parts you may ever need
I personally have killed oh 25 deer with my crossbow. Not many, but i use rage chissle tip and i shoot threw the shoulder like a rifle. It drops them in tracks and ive never had to track over 40 yards. Blead right out in a min. My experience. Yours may vary.. just wanted to say cuz you said don't and thats cool.. good luck to all hunter's...
I do this too. All my shots with crossbow and rifle are mid shoulder double lung shots. Shot a doe this morning and went maybe 50 yards. I use swhacker 1.75
Better to under estimate yardage than over estimate. Have always heard we tend to over estimate yardage in the woods, and under estimate yardage in a field. Even quiet crossbows are LOUD. I don't play the lottery, but aiming low helps up the odds of winning the harvest lottery. Bare shaft tuning, heavy duty cut on contact broadheads, and medium to heavy weight arrow/broadhead set ups don't hurt either. Give FOC a try. It is amazing.
Some things I've learned over the last decade using my crossbow, that weren't mentioned: a deer with its head down will drop faster and further than one with its head up. Also, use a fixed blade instead of a mechanical blade and you'll increase your success rate, especially on a less than perfect shot. Thirdly, illuminated nocks are worth the investment, losing bolts is expensive and in low light you'll have a headstart finding a blood trail. And finally, I've never lost a deer that was hit in the heart, it's the best choice for an ethical kill
A wise, old geezer dude once told me to visualize a basketball with the heart at the center for those quartering away and overhead shots. At times that methodology had me wondering if I were doing it correctly just before I hit the release. I questioned myself but trusted my instincts. It works pretty well.
This is a very educational video, thank you
Thank you for teaching me something new.
Thanks for the knowledge very useful video, I'm subscribing!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks dude
good video , thanks always nice to review after a miss.
I missed a 6 point so I came to this video
I dropped my first Buck last season with my crossbow an rage broad head thanks to your video. Thank you
Rage has never worked for me. The head bent and or was completely destroyed every time. Fixed blade for me.
@ellismidkiff6117 i understand. I know a few people that said the same thing. But so far i have had great success with the rage.
Wish I would have watched this video a week earlier. I took a quartering to shot at a big buck and never was able to recover him. Think the shot was in the shoulder blade. Hoping he made it for gun season this coming week. Thanks for making a great video that is easy to follow!
Typical crossbow hunter.
Can you show a shot placement video in wild boar?
Great vid. Great expansion on were and what to do. Hey U rifle guy. Watch a diff vid hahaha. Drrrrr
Could still watch this video and use these methods... and have even more options to learn later. I used a shotgun last year aimed for the same spot, worked perfectly. Right behind the leg center line.
Listen. BEHIND the shoulder. Quartered deer aim for opposite shoulder that way u hit both lungs. What most teachers and people will say, common sense. All though great vid.
I hunt rifle but I have always aimed for the heart... never heard of the whole "aim for the shoulder" thing.
Jacob Sawyer Next time you can try to aim for the shoulder and see what happen.
@@gyroscope9228 I agree! They fold up like a wet rag.
gyro scope my dad always told me
“Aim right behind the front shoulder”
They can't go no where when you take out their running gear.

That’s a fact, I did have one push it self along with its back legs for about 10 yards once.
Shoot a little .lower from a tree-stand. TelePrompter must have made a mistake. Never predetermine a deer dropping out of the shot. It doesn't happen that often. I've shot way too many deer that have never moved
How does a deer with on lung, that has blood and oxygen leaving it's body rapidly, (though not as fast as with both lungs) live for a long time?
Mad We they live long enough to travel very far away from where it was hit, making tracking more difficult.
Fucking magic bro. You tell me. A big buck can make it 100 yards easily when shot in the heart.
@@Bowfella so true. it's mind-boggling what they can do, it's pretty unreal.
@@zzz7zzz9 I recently shot a 5 point, I hit the liver, both lungs, and straight through the heart and he still ran 50 yards.
@@Bowfella yup, i've had similar. We are such pussies by comparison. A hangover or bad cold completely floors us.
I was Mexican origin question I will start the shooting deer in the neck is that odd or not is that even a thing in the states keep in mind I never hunted deer in the states
ivan flores I hunt in Virginia and always shoot them in the neck
Buy yourself a deer target if you decided to get involved in bow season and practice. Gun season hunting Top shoulders, mid Neck, or doe kill head shot behind eye or top front head shot. Brian kill drop where they stand at shorter distances. Just make sure your scope is
Mounted well and very accurate when head shots.
Didn't know Woody Harrison done crossbow lessons 😎👍🏻
Can a certain power level crossbow shoot through the shoulder?
+vpsaline There are some crossbows that can produce enough kinetic energy, however, you also have to worry about arrow and broadhead failure. Also, it is always best to have two holes when blood trailing a deer. Even if you blow through the first shoulder your odds of blowing through the second as well is greatly reduced. This is why we aim just behind.
yes
As a bow hunter I've read that an arrow that weighs less than 400 grains will not punch effectively through bone. A cross bow bolt is usually lighter I believe.
I have a falcon 370 extreme crossbow. I should rage broadheads. I have actually put one through the shoulder full pass through buck dropped right there
Just last week I killed a deer with a shoulder shot at 40 yards. I shoot a Scorpyd aculeus 460 with spitfire mechanicals and it was a full pass through and got stuck 5" in the ground.
Aim for the back of the off side leg. Money every time
Who the heck aims for the shoulder? Maybe someone who likes tracking? lol
I shot two deer with the crossbow and I got one lung and they ran
40 to 60 yards away
Thats not very far. Thats at worst a 4 min walk
This is False you don’t want to am at the vital organs you one to aim a little lower because most deer Witt duck and if you aim too high they will duck and you will miss so always aim a little lower so you are always going to bring home some venison for your Family
Crossbows shoot bolts not arrows
Only in common vernacular. Strictly speaking, bolts describe an arrow-like projectile without fletching or stabilizing vanes. Most crossbows shoot arrows.
I shot a buck in a field straight on about 30 yards away with my crossbow and I will never shoot one again in that position. I watched that deer run in the woods and after about an hour I got down out of me stand and went to find my deer only to not find and blood at all nowhere not a drop. Found it a week later because of buzzards with the arrow still in him.
