Where did this Term Come from? The only Thing I can think of is it came from people not knowing the anatomy of a deer and hitting deer high, thinking they hit below the spine and above the lungs (they go all the way to the top of the chest cavity,which extends off of the vertebrae, which in turn makes up the spinal column where the spinal cord is protected inside of), when, in reality, they hit above the spine....This is easily true if you hit farther forward above the shoulder.

Anyone correct me if I am wrong..
