150 grain Power Points through the lungs don't destroy usable meat. Any round through the lungs won't destroy usable meat. Aim for the lungs.
Are you getting the point?
Sorry if I sound sarcastic in the above but trailing a lung shot deer may cause you to walk 60 yards with a clearly defined blood trail. That is a minor price to pay for not damaging meat.
Now, if I see the trophy rack of a lifetime I may well do a shoulder shot to stop him with a quick follow up and to heck with meat damage.
