The big issue here is the person making the shot.
What one considers "ethical" is not what another considers "ethical"
This term is theown around like popcorn these days.
i was once called unethical by a cmpound shooter because I did not shoot from a tree stand and practised hard shoots under trees , etc.
he said it was unethical because there was too much chamce of missing - that is precisely why I practised them!!

Time of flight s long, and deer can move a great distance at that range, so everything has to be perfect.
