It would be super helpful if the animal could react to the shot to show the string jump in action too. I think it’s hard to understand the reaction just by the numbers displayed. The turkey vitals are super frustrating because even when I shoot a turkey in the neck it says “missed vital organs.” Also if there’s a way to get arc on an arrow after impact to show how an arrow would actually impact an animal would be awesome. Because an arrow doesn’t go straight through an animal especially at distance, or from elevation. I’d like to be able practice more scenarios. This app is super helpful for people who don’t have a lot of experience with actually hunting scenarios, I use this mostly to burn time when I have down time and to practice different shot angles. It’s a good app, it could definitely be awesome and I’d pay extra for these updates. ### 4/5 — Helpful learning tool *2026-02-16* I like this simulator, it’s clear and easy to learn. Would be nice to have some sound effects (like the string release), and some nature sounds. Also, would be nice to have more kinds of terrain to practice on. Otherwise it’s useful ### 4/5 — Add Bears *2025-07-27* This is a great app, but it would be great to add black bears and brown bears. ### 4/5 — Good App *2024-10-14* Great app so far. Got it because of the EZV sight. Allows me to stay sharp when I’m not around my bow. Just wished it had all of the insert options that the sight comes with. My wish is a 220 and 240 was added to the app. ### 4/5 — Feedback *2021-03-09* Would be great if you had a scoring system to make it a bit challenge. Add a multiplayer option. Add a target only ### 4/5 — 4 *2021-02-15* This is a pretty good app overall. The ability to zoom in on the shot investigation and a more detailed anatomy including the venous system would make it 5 stars. A small often overlooked detail is that Elk lungs sit lower than a whitetail’s. Same with this app, however a great tool to determine wait time to track. ### 4/5 — Good *2020-11-04, version 1.2.5* Not what I thought it was but it pretty good ### 4/5 — Need to add more animals *2020-07-12* So I know you have a wide variety of animals but I hope you can add bison and moose and even more animals and also add places like Africa. Good job on making the game though. ### 4/5 — Good game *2020-04-16* A few things the creator should add is more species like mule deer, gemsbok, antelope, big horn sheep, ETC. and also allow us to collect the animal it would help with the game. A few issues is the turkey. The hen has a beard which in real life does not, no hit box for lungs and heart, and it is impossible to hit the turkey in the neck. I also wish that there was more bows. If there were crossbows then maybe more people would buy the game. One last thing maybe the creator should add in calls and fix the sensitivity when you draw back ### 4/5 — Fun game *2020-01-15, version 1.2.0* I just got this game and I’m enjoying it a lot. ONE wish is that a rangefinder option would be added. ### 3/5 — Stuff that they need to work on *2019-12-26* Not enough targets I wish you were able to walk around ### 2/5 — Suggestions *2018-11-13* You need to put crossbows in the game and you need to pick what size buck u want to shoot you need to let us walk around in the game and hunt you need to also let us track down the deer and make this game like a hunting game that would make it so much bigger. ### 3/5 — Ok app *2018-09-16* So what I like to do is set the app up to replay a scenario but if you look at the back side front leg while you shoot to when you inspect it’s in total complete spot and saying I hit from shoulder isn’t even close to replay a scenario. Should update to single pin also for an option. ### 4/5 — Very good *2018-04-29* Would be awesome if it had better details of the internals of a turkey, change closest pin setting to 15 yards, different calls for ALL animals, and effect of the animal falling over after kill shots. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t do it *2022-11-27* Game is pretty basic arrow has 3/4 second delay at 30 yards animals either walking slow or just standing by setting. No choice at big bucks or anything. All it does is show you where to hit a deer/other animals no rewards or levels basic recurve and compound settings. ### 1/5 — Waste *2020-12-19, version 1.2.5* I don’t really see a point to this...downloaded it shot three arrows realized all this is is a poor reflection of kinda bow hunting and deleted it. Thank god it was only 3.99 ### 1/5 — Worst paid app ever *2020-10-11, version 1.2.5* How can they charge for such a bad game ### 1/5 — Make game better *2020-08-10* First off this app needs more animals because it only has a few. Second add some more graphics and fix the few you already have. Third fix your controls and make them easier to use. And lastly find someone who can make your game better. ### 1/5 — don’t waste ur money *2020-06-18, version 1.2.2* trust me you don’t wanna buy the game the animals don’t move it’s no fun ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-01-27, version 1.2.0* Can I get a refund it’s terrible ### 1/5 — Horrible waste of money *2018-01-02, version 1.1.4* A true wonder this game is amazing.... amazing that I spent money on it. It’s absolutely horrible. I bought it with the hopes that it would be half way good but it isn’t at all. Don’t waste your time or money on it ### 1/5 — Waste *2017-11-07, version 1.1.4* Waste of money. Wouldn’t download again if it was free. ### 1/5 — Hunt *2017-09-02, version 1.1.4* Waste of money. Don't buy it ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2017-01-02, version 1.0.9* Waste of money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome learning tool *2026-02-09* Thank you so much. Great tool for beginners and veterans alike. allows practice of various angles and heights while allowing anatomically correct 3d view of organs of animals post shot to examine efficiency. ### 5/5 — Extremely Helpful for Bow Hunters of any Level *2024-10-27* Great app to better visualize where the vitals are so you set up in the right spot when in the field. Trains your eye better than any 3d or vitals target, showing you where to aim at every angle of the deer and if shooting from the ground or tree. Well worth the money. For the developer: Would love to see it include feedback when you put one through the abdomen (e.g. on a quartering away shot). ### 5/5 — Awsome *2023-09-10* It’s a great game but it needs red deer,bison,Cape buffalo,gensbok,pronghorn,mule deer,bighorn sheep,fox,collard peccary,fallow deer , moose ,black bear , grizzly bear, and axis deer and many more ### 5/5 — Very good app *2023-02-01* Very good and unique app. ### 5/5 — EZ V Bow Sight! *2022-01-20* Paid for app without hesitation after seeing several members posting about it on the “EZ V Sight reVolution” FaceBook group. So far love the app. Could you please add different speed inserts? This is a big request from fellow EZ V Bow Sight users. Keep up the great work, the app is a lot of fun! ### 5/5 — Great Sim *2022-01-05* Great bow simulator I wish he’d add some stuff to make it stand out a bit more but overall these is very basic with no frills which isn’t a bad thing. No Ads either. ### 5/5 — Greta *2021-05-16* Great sim But really needs an option to hunt and call from a tree stand ect ### 5/5 — Very useful tool *2021-01-22* I almost didn’t download this after seeing the reviews. I read a few of the one star reviews, and people kept referring to this as “a terrible game“. Apparently they didn’t read the description. It clearly states that this is NOT A GAME! It’s a ballistic simulator that has greatly enhanced my shot placement. I would recommend this to any beginner or serious hunter. ### 5/5 — What the heck?! This is amazing *2020-09-05, version 1.2.5* Whoever coded this game is a genius I’m learning exactly where to place my arrows, it’s like flash cards for hunting. Thank you ### 5/5 — Read!! *2018-08-28, version 1.1.4* This is a incredible game..I’m a bow hunter and this is fun to mess around with in that stand anyway you guys should add 5 10 15yrd pins and maybe different size bucks and maybe add does it would be cool if you could watch you animal die but any way 👌🏻👍🏻 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
