If you hit the bone straight on, the broad head would likely penetrate the bone minutely and the elk would run off either dislodging the whole arrow or breaking the shaft off. Even on the thicker portion of the shoulder blade, penetration would be limited. The thinner portion of the blade would be penetrated easily, but you would loose a lot of kinetic energy.
