Default RE: best shot placement on a deer

Quartering to are low percentage. I have killed a few that way, but they have almost all been one lung/liver hits...which can sometimes result in a long tracking job. If you hit far forward and heard the crack...you probably didn't get the penetration you needed (especially with not finding him even with a dog). Personally I wait for broadside or quartering away shots only now. Much higher percentage shot.
