Default RE: Best place to shoot an elk??

I look at the circulatory system of the elk, and I see one thing. Place your arrow 5-6 inches left of the heart and you are in the out of the ballpark. Shoot into the mass of lungs and hit that far left, and you are in the liver. Still a kill shot even though you had better wait. I clicked the dot off and wish that I hadn't. Manboy, do what you want, but there has only been one thing at the end of my bloodtrails................a gutpile. My tracking skills are great if needed, even though they don't get excersized much. I n the last 5 years I have had 11 big game animals on the ground, and ALL were double lunged exept for one. I hit further back into the liver. I waited for an extra 2 hours and found the bull about 100 yards away. These people on here are not rookies, so stop treating them like they don't know what they are talking about. You would be surprised at the accomplishments of several on here, and where they have acheived their knowledge. Personal attacks on people show the type of person one is.

And by the way, what I was swallowing was a mouthful of elk steak!!!!!!!!!!
