kt--on opening day last year I shot a doe at 10 yards from a pretty steep angle...the shot felt great but it ended up sticking to far forward into the shoulder. Myself and 2 other accomplished trackers tracked for 2 hours and couldnt find the deer.....5 days later I shot a buck at 34 yards, I was scared to take that shot but I had practiced it 1000 times and instinct took over.
Don't worry about it, let those arrows fly if you have a good shot! By the way, on opening day yesterday, I stalked a deer on the ground and had what I thought was a good 20 yard broadside shot...turns out it was about 25 yards....all I got was some white hair!
