Thank you!! I had imagined all sorts of distances and practised those distances but for it to be that close was amazing!! Time stopped! I was on the tree stand 1.5 meters from the ground so the shot was on a very steep angle. Went through left side and exited on the right elbow. Slight slice of the heart.
