The buck I shot last year went thru the shoulder blade. I made a bad shot , luckily I have enough ke that it blew thru the shoulder blade. It' s not something I would try to do. If you hit the shoulder bone (knuckle) directly your in for a long day!

I shot a large doe last year at a 90 degree agle through both shoulder knuckes with a 100 grain NAP Shockwave and it destroyed both sides. She never went far though. Arrows went almost all the way through

The reason I ask is , last year I was shooting 70ftlbs of kinetic energy and I blew thru one shoulder bade and the arrow came to a dead stop when it hit the opposite shoulder bone. The shot was 15yds with a NAP spitfire.

How much kinetic energy are you shooting to blow thru two shoulder bones (not blades)?

In response to the original question, I have never had shoulder blade shot...intentionally or unintentionally....so I honestly would not know.
