Easiest way is to place a feeder 30m in front of a treestand. That will provide the correct distance. Scent spray will do as well.
Oh, getting close was easy, actually hitting something vital was not! I can't hit the broad side of a barn from inside of it with a recurve bow. :lol:

No need to hit vitals with a bow. If you hit the animal, it will die, even if the first blood track says that the health is at "99-99%". Just wait 10 minutes, then follow it until you find it dead somewhere.

With recruve bow always force yourself to shoot really low.

What exactly is your problem?
Movement of the bow - that is a matter of skill level
Where to aim - that is a matter of experience, but a nice player posted this images, which are very helpful...

I have been playing TheHunter for a loooong time. In all those years,
our pal HOOCAIRS has been the most helpful, kindest, most PC knowledgeable
friend that has helped me and countless others. (And I've had many friends
help me)

Thanks so much, Hoo :!:

If you use tracer arrows, they will not fly off after the first shot. Therefore you have more attempts.
