Gee, I guess I saw that differently. Yes the first shot was forward a little, but like he said (and it is true), that is where the exactly where heart is. A couple inches back, and he would have had an unobstructed shot to the heart. At first I didn't think he got good penetration, but on the replay, you could see the arrow snap when the Elk stumbled. He got enough to hit heart IMO on the first shot.
The second shot was at 75 yards. again, he went though the shoulder. I don't know if he got enough penetration on that one though.

Would I purposely shoot where Ted put the arrow? No.

Jeez, I'm defending Ted now.......

Last word, I still don't totally understand why Ted always seems to take heart shots. Especially when there is so much more to aim at with the lungs.
