Like that?
Shoot um in the neck.
That's was my dad's thing.
Guess it rubbed off.

OldRooster: No!
I am patient enough and savy enough to wait for the meat saving and blood letting heart/lung shots on Deer.
I avoid "shoulder shots" at all costs as well!

I’ve made neck shots, but only when the animals are calm.

No reservations here, have taken more than a few that way. Been known to make some meat right through the ears, they all ate the same.
