Wearing glasses and hunting with a bow doesn't go together too well for me... To improve my shooting ability I attached a red dot laser to my bow and now I'm back to hitting the target. This past weekend I got to put the dot on a spike buck, not to shoot him but just to see if he reacted. He didn't have a clue that he was in my sights.
The experience made me wonder how a deer or turkey would react to seeing the red dot on the ground in front of them. Would they be curious? Would they follow it? Would the turkey try to catch and eat it? Could the turkey be "led" closer for a better shot? Lots of questions that I intend to get the answers to. Have you encountered this before? How did the animal react? Thanks for listening, BOB
