Default RE: I Hate When This Happens

I used to aim for the heart lung area on a deer. All this talk about wasting meat. In my 30 years of hunting I haven't found too much meat in a whitetails' shoulders anyway. I had to track a few bucks as I had hit some a little further back than I should have.

Now I aim for the shoulder, about 4" down from the back and directly in line with the leg when they are standing broadside. Each deer shot there so far has been found right where they were standing when I shot them. Only they were laying on the ground, quiteexpired.
