ideal shot is broadside or slightly quartering away. i have watched people take shots i would of never tried. now saying that i wonder what would happen if i had my buck of a lifetime slightly quartering to me would i shoot him or not. haven't been in that situation so i can't answer that. if a deer is heading out away and it's straight awa then there is no shot and if someone says you can make the shot and would do that i wouldn't hunt with them again. quartering away means slight quartering shot not walking full away
