Mark is one of my favorite on screen hunters - but in this video he is a bit too animated. Great information and yes, for anyone that has bowhunted, experiencing "jumping the string" is inevitable. I had a doe actually go straight to the ground to avert the arrow - wish I had a videcam of the shot, but is is burned into my brain and always reminds me of that possibility.
