Where to Aim on a Deer With Your CROSSBOW Part II

The original video I did on this subject has over 100,00 views! Thank you very much, Friends of Bunjie! You can watch that video here: bit.ly/2KdfKOl
THIS video covers angles using the Bunjie Triangle and also some thoughts on what to do to avoid deer jumping the string.
This is not a channel about shooting big bucks. I don't discriminate--I'll shoot any legal deer. ;)

I want to help make KZbin the #1 place for quality hunting entertainment. I want to help spread the hunting lifestyle. To do that, I set up this channel to showcase the crossbow and help others film their hunts and get those videos online. So, subscribe to this channel to be entertained and learn more about crossbows and filming in the outdoors.
This channel is about my love of the crossbow, hunting, and the outdoors. I hunt almost exclusively with the crossbow. I love it. Sure, like a lot of kids, I started hunting with a good ol' Model '94 Winchester 30-30 back in the 80's, but drifted away from hunting when I went off to college, law school, and started a family. As my daughter got older, I regained my interest in the outdoors, and I consider myself lucky to hunt on the same property today that I hunted on as a kid. I got the Excalibur Axiom crossbow in 2010 and I haven't looked back. This channel is the result of combining my interest in filming and hunting...
...and music, too! My related channel, Yankee Militia, showcases my music. Some of the music is hunting-related, so check that out, too! The soundtrack for this channel is provided by my band, so the two are intertwined. The albums "Live Free or Kill" and "Zombies Gotta Eat, Too!" are available on Amazon.com and elsewhere.

Rich, I have been hunting with archery equipment for 40 years. I use recurve, compound and crossbows (Excalibur). I say this because I want everyone on your channel to realize how informative you are. Your videos are an awesome educational tool for anyone, beginner to the experienced. Please keep up the great work and Thank You for your efforts to continue this wonderful tradition of hunting!! I always look forward to your next post.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Thanks for this and thanks for watching!

[@rongarofalo3482]

I like the bungie triangle. Keeps all shots in perspective.

[@TheButchersDefiler]

I think that iam allways a little smarter after looking one of these great videos made by Rich! Thank you very much!

[@duckthis17]

Great job Rich.There is so much chatter in forums online these days about taking shots over 30-40 yds with crossbows.It makes me sad to think how many deer are being wounded/lost because of the hype.I was raised like you were, by ethical hunters to dispatch an animal as quickly and humanely as possible to minimize the suffering to any animal.This is just great info for the newbies and all in general.I hope many see your videos and learn to have just as much fun hunting does and the delicious healthy meat they give us.So many people young and old are so entranced on a big set of horns that they are missing out on the real joy of hunting deer.Keep up the good work,there are many out there that want to hunt yet don't have an ethical teacher,but they will by watching your vids.

[@huckfinn4260]

Great advice as always. There's no good reason to take long shots.

[@GuyBlakeSrPack163]

Love the videos great information for newer hunters and a refresher for the experienced keep up the great work

[@huntwisejdr793]

Another great video Rich. Very informative

[@catboat4228]

Not that your not a good looking fella BUT!!!! what happen to the Ranger ride in and blowing up??????

[@BuckMcAntlerson]

I've taken two shots at 40 yds one I grazed belly fur and the other one went into my freezer. But it's definitely better the closer it is to you I agree.

[@Deathbybunjie]

That's how it goes sometimes, I have taken two shots on deer straight on from the front, and one I took home and one I did not. Similar, won't do that again.

[@knl0704]

Great part II. First time hunting with a Crossbow this season. I find all your videos very informative and educational.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Thanks for this, and thanks for watching!

[@garyrose-ogh8050]

Hi Rich, Good info. The "Bunjie Triangle" has been used in other videos under a different name. No matter what the triangle is called the location is still the same. Top corner of the shoulder blade, the joint of the shoulder blade and humerus bone, and the top of the humerus bone where it connects to the fore leg bones where the elbow is formed. It looks something like this

[@useryggfdcc]

Excellent explanation of the triangle shots. Got my first crossbow a few weeks ago, Excalibur GRZ2, shoots very accurately on 3D deer targets. October our deer season for crossbows starts up here in Canada 🇨🇦.

[@terrycarney9234]

Thanks for the vid. I am so glad you touched on jumping the string. I saw another guy talking about it and was going to ask you.

[@jayman5628]

Man these videos get me pumped and ready for the upcoming deer season. September 14th archery starts here in Georgia.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Oh, yeah, I know what you mean!

[@boomerrangerron]

Rich, well done and very informative. I always liked your Bungie Triangle idea, and it of course is where the vitals are located. My bow hunter friends, the successful ones all talk about going for "double lung" shots to be certain of a quick and clean kill. Unfortunately for me as a lifelong gun hunter, I am so used to shooting for the heart, and immediately behind the leg. I've got to start picking the big boiler room for more success!

[@Deathbybunjie]

It's easy to remember it when you're up close I think, rather than a hundred yards away with a running deer in my experience LOL

[@kaboom362]

Great shot! For you it's like riding a bike. Muscle memory Galore! Love the videos. Always thumbs up

[@Deathbybunjie]

yeah i was a bit worried shooting this video since it had been a while lol

[@jasonrobinson763]

Good video Rich !

[@CalvinsCorner72]

I thank you Rich I learned a little something here. Also you have trained that camera well 👍😉

[@Deathbybunjie]

LOL thanks Calvin, always great to hear from you!

[@practicaltactical1336]

Just like last year, by the end of the month i'll be Jonesing for more Videos when it's over! All Hail Bunjie!

[@Deathbybunjie]

LOL and I'll be sleeping it off haha

[@vicparis3524]

I'm with George L.And thanks for keeping the out takes in!

[@carlsnow2342]

Rich we love the vids i can tell that you are very passionate about the ethical kill shot . As one hunter to another thank you for your explanation on good shots . Now go fill your freezer winter is coming !!!

[@BOHEMIANHUNTINGCLUB]

Good info!!👍👍

[@DanielGarcia-zw8nx]

😅 can't get enough of the outtakes but you're right aim small Miss small

[@TheAmishSasquatch]

Can't wait to get into the trees!

[@andrewwhittaker2908]

Haven't seen you on death by Bunjie Facebook group page?

[@ee222]

"...looks like it's focusing on the deer there. what's up with that." ... oh, sure rich, always got to be the center of attention, i know how you are! :) great vid. lots of good info. thanks!

[@Deathbybunjie]

LOL

[@stowildlifecallstv6859]

On your live deer shot at 6:39-6:40, on this video & Aim High-Miss High, the nock end via the lighted nock seems to really fish tail. Also at 8:24-8:26, same fish tailing.

[@Deathbybunjie]

I've noticed that, the Lumenok is just along for the ride though LOL.

[@stowildlifecallstv6859]

@@Deathbybunjie Will not really. Even with hitting your target, it could be showing a few things, like fletching hitting something leaving your bow, that the arrow has a weaker spline, you could be losing energy on the arrow, which might not be a problem on a broadside shot on deer, but you will have a problem on angle shots, and heaven forbid you hit the shoulder or some other heavy bone in larger animal, you could be up the creek with out a paddle. So IMO no your Lumenok is not just along for the ride, it is telling you something.

[@locksbog4270]

Great info Rich 👍👍👍😃✌️

[@johnrichardson2632]

Awesome video as usual! I learned so much from your videos. What do you use to film from your crossbow?

[@Deathbybunjie]

I use a canon t8i dslr as a main camera and tactacam 5.0's on the crossbow itself

[@brianblackwell2308]

Thank you again teach

[@chucksmith5002]

Have to really check this out meaning the triangle . Now I have a question for you Rich I watch a lot of you videos but tell me what to do . Don`t know if this is bad or good took my Killer Instinct Ripper out in the yard today set my tripod for my cross bow up shot 5 arrows at 10 yds. all 5 arrows at a different bullseye all arrows was in that 3in circle if not dead center of bullseye . Moved the target back to 20 yrd. tried the 20 yrd. pin too high put the 10yrd pin on it all 5 arrows in the 3 in. circle`s . Moved the target back to 30 yrd. and went to the 30 yrd pin too high put it on 10 yrd pin all 5 arrows in the 3 in circle . In case I lost you from 10 to 30 yrds it is the same pin . Idon`t know whether I should be happy or disappointed . What do you think . Sorry this was so long . Keep up with the good videos .

[@Deathbybunjie]

Do you have ten and 30 yard reticles?

[@MrRedfish1964]

Can you tell us more about your camera that you have on your crossbow - I would like to add one to mine for this year.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Tactacam 5.0, love it

[@gant8408]

they don't jump the string they jump the arrow they only react when the arrow is about 8 ft away from them because of the noise of the arrow

[@kieronbevan7489]

Now I have my bow it's time rto start studying

[@moosejcthunter5686]

WWWWWHHHHHHAAAAT

[@ghislaincormier8287]

Part deux... no ' :-)

[@iHustleLXXXI]

You're hilarious with your bloopers section of your videos. They're almost more interesting/funny to watch than your videos! Lol! Just kidding. But on a real note I think all deer will jump the string when it hears a loud pop from your CB no matter what. Just like humans will instictively duck when they hear a gun shot even though they don't know if their the ones being shot at or not. I cant say that from experience but it seems like what everyone does in the movies or the news when a person hears a gunshot go off.

[@tommartin1767]

Whatever happened to proofreading before you send. Oh my, you’re in for a surprise!

[@iHustleLXXXI]

Tom Martin sorry. You could figure out that I was saying "duck" and not "fuck". I'm using a swype keyboard on my iPhone and it's not like it had a spell check or Grammer check!

[@tommartin1767]

Completely understand. Brought some laughter to my day. All is hell...oops...I mean all is well!

[@iHustleLXXXI]

Deers are stupid animals. I was driving Uber/Lyft for fun the other day and I was in a rural area. I pass this hill and I spot a Doe to my right and I slow down to make sure she’s not going to run in front of me. I honked and flashed my high beams on and off. Then I pass the deer and apparently it ran right into the side of my car. I did everything I could to avoid this but the deer still ran into my flawless 2017 Camry SE. I will have so much fun just killing one to get revenge! That Doe really dented up the side of my car. I was pissed off.
