One of the biggest mistakes bowhunter experiance is a total miss or a wound due to aiming at entire animal instead of "picking a spot or X"
So other than Leftys bang on point of eliminating a 100 way tie, it is just good practise to teach all bowhunters to "pick a spot" on the animal...in this case as mentioned it just happens to be that X spot...
Over the years I have developed the ability...That once my animal is identified as an animal I want...I focus on that X or spot and nothing else...before I draw and thru entire shot...I dont see nothing else on/of that animal regardless of antler or fang size...this is the same principal.
Oh and Stinkhammer if you hear deer and elk talking to you...its time to get out of the woods for a while son....lol

Good point on focusing on the spot. The 100 way tie thing doesn't happen though. I have been in several of theses styles of shoots and my first impression was that there would be a huge tie and it just hasn't ever happened. Over the course of three rounds of shooting scores get very spread out and very rarely is there a tie. Either way it will be good to see some other clubs picking up this format.
And Lost if the deer and elk aren't talking to you your not spending enough time in the bush!
