Prefer to let a deer stop on its own but have “meh’ed” a number of times successfully when bowhunting and will continue to do so when needed. Although it does alert the deer, my experience has been that the odds of me making a good shot in this situation are better than the odds of doing so on a walking/moving deer.
Bird and duck hunting with a shotgun has made me automatically lead a moving target. This has not translated to archery for me as I have seen time and again when bowfishing that I do not automatically lead a fish properly with a bow! I suck at leading carp with my bow! Not going to try it with my bow while shooting at a deer. The one time I did resulted in a gut shot doe.
Maybe I should try using a “meh” on carp!
