(Live from yesterday). Watched a 6 or 8 fifty yds away at 9:00 a.m freshen his scrape,thrash the branches and then stand on his back legs and rub higher branches. Tried using a bleat in heat but no luck.Then at 10 a.m. yesterday I heard a noise ,looked over my shoulder and here comes an old buck with a high upswept spike type rack with some kickers near the base-heading right toward me. I stood,knocked an arrow,attached the release and by this time I was looking at the top of the buck through the base of my treestand. He walked out in front of me and when he was about 15 yds. I made a noise with my voice and he stopped quarting away. I was at full draw and put the pin on the sweet spot and let the arrow fly.... Whack right in to a tree over his back. I put my 30 yard pin on him instead of my 20 yard pin. The buck took a couple of quick steps forward and looked around. I had no second chance as I watched him walk away. Yup, I suck.

No, I watched the arrow sail over the deer .I unscrewed the arrow from the broadhead buried in the tree.I should have used my 20 pin and aimed lower because I was 18- 20 feet up.I had about 30 seconds to attempt a shot and I goofed on the pin.

Guess you were able to salvage the arrow. Suppose the broadhead is a goner. Something I'll need to consider when I go out with the bow.
