if entrance I say right on the money.
And Greg....your sketch doesn't show the ENTIRE makeup of a deer's shoulder......only the skeletal structure.There's more to the shoulder than that.....and your sketch is misleading to new hunters. There's a lot of cartilage in the plate that surrounds the shoulder socket that can be avoided on an optimal shot. But you know that.
Care to explain this further? This is an accurate depiction of the anatomy of the bones and the shoulder. Your comments are misleading. There are three places that contain cartilage on the shoulder region of the deer. Can you tell me what/where they are?
If we want to get technical, the green dot is a long ways from the shoulder. It is about 2 inches above the olecranon, part of the joint below the shoulder.
Here you go, this oughta help some with the shoulder discussions. I will just add one thing to it...there is no shoulder socket on a deer. Their shoulder blade is a floating joint.
