Another horrible video, this time I explain how I set up a fixed crawl on my longbow for hunting. Best to watch my video about Gap shooting before watching this one.
I don’t hunt very high off the ground, 12’ max. And I don’t shoot out past 20m. So for me, it really doesn’t change much about how I aim. If you were hunting higher and shooting farther out, there might be considerations but I haven’t tested it myself, because those aren’t shots I’m taking. Wish I could be more help.
@@travismcleod 20m is a reasonable assumption I think for most but I've seen some crazy high treestands. Made me curious as you'd think the angle would change things up.
@@bitbyterjr there are some great UA-cam videos from field archers that shoot some crazy angles at yardage. They speak to the considerations better than I can. Again, with how I set up, I hit very close to the same spot. I do however take my yardages from the base of the tree out to target.
If your point on is at 20m and you aim 7" low at 20 you will hit 7" low. If you aim dead on it should be a dead deer from 16m or 17m to 23m to 24m any deer outside that range then you would need to change point of aim. Darren
Perfect explanation, cheers mate.
Great explanation, thanks!
thank you
Maybe this a dumb question but how does the aiming and fixed crawl change if you are in an elevated position (such as a tree stand)?

@@travismcleod any links you'd suggest?

I agree with you. Did I misspeak in the video?
@Travis McLeod It did sound like that I knew you would know that just wanted to point it out for other viewers Thanks for vidio. Darren
