Think of it as showing off! I mean, who can't hit a 200# mule deer at 15 yds, much harder to hit your deer, right? Besides, those hind legs would smoke up really nicely and each make a fine dinner for 4. The trophy is the experience in being in primitive archery range of an animal that makes it's living avoiding predators. Never feel slighted when it is a clean and honorable kill. Pretty deer, tasty deer.
