i am not too sure these newer bows are so fast that it does not leave the deer a lot of time to react to the string noise, but i do know they can hear the arrow coming some broad head make a lot of noise, but some vanes flutter at fastter speeds. i have checked that out while my son is shooting his bow the arrow makes a frying sound air rushing. hence the deer drops or jump straight up. i had one spread eagle to an arrow once i used to think aim low well one deer fooled me one on that if they drop down you got him but if they jump you cleanly miss. you thought?

Every time I miss I say they “jumped the sting”. Makes me feel better. :-)

Shoot a Hoyt and you won’t have to worry about that! LOL

Just kidding. It is amazing how much they can drop in that short period of time.

That is why I aim at the heart. If they drop any, I still have a chance. If they don’t, short blood trail.
