Hi,
I was studying some pictures of a deers anatomy and noticed that a shot above the shoulder looks to be a pretty good one. There is a bunch of arteries and a lot of lung to hit in this area. I acidentally shot a deer above the shoulder several years ago and hit it right in the heart (and apparently the lungs as well from these diagrams).

How come this is typically considered a bad place to shoot? If the deer's front leg on the shooting side is way back this looks like an ideal shot.Am I missing something?
