Shot placement

Where do you aim for quartering toward and quartering away shots

[nchawkeye]

Quartering towards you is a no shot situation...

Quartering away I aim so the arrow exits just behind the opposite leg...

I try not to take quartering to shots with my bow, to many problems (i.e. hit in chest or shoulder, or bad gut shot).

As for my quartering away, I aim so that the arrow goes into the opposite shoulder.

i only took a quartering to shot once, i got one lung and i did recover him easily. but now that i am more experienced i dont reccomend it. what these guys said about quartering away.

Good advise,Thanks

quartering away shots IMO are the best, the angle gives you quite a bit of room for error.

but aim for the vitals! haha and try not to hit the shoulder.

What he said^

The exit hole. If you can hit it and exit it through the back of the far lung, good. If not it's not a shot. Always aim for the exit hole and you'll be fine.

Well personally i LOVE quartering away shots, just look at the far shoulder and try to hit it.. quartering to you shots are nice for me also, the set up i have for my bow i can shoot trhough both shoulders and pass through fine so i just aim for the shoulder and the opposit side lung if you can.. just my .02.. alot of people wouldnt agree with me but i've shot 5 deer quartering to me and i recovered them within 80 yards..
