Default RE: Would you be proud of this shot?

ORIGINAL: GMMAT

Bawana.....6" forward of where I hit would have been a shoulder hit and an exit through the off-side shoulder or MORE likely.......the brisket. Nothing wrong with that if you make it through (I've done that, also). But I don't think that's "optimal".
I shoot heavy arrows with thunderheads and the closer I can come to that shoulder the better.
I have not tracked a deer in over ten years.
Shoot very close, under twenty yards ,and hit them in the front, and they fall within sight.
