Without resorting to a head or neck shot, where do you aim to drop a deer in its tracks?
I am directing this more towards shotgun hunters. So far, every whitetail deer I have shot has run after the shot. Rifle shots seem to drop them always on the hunting shows that I watch. Double-lung shots are what I have always taken. They never get too far. But I wonder if there is still a better place I can aim, like for the shoulders or heart.
Hi Matt,
Just curious. Why? Double lung shot will kill them every time. And you say they never get too far. So why the need to drop them?
I beg to differ on the Rifle shots always dropping them on the hunting shows. They run many times.
