In a sharp quartering-away angle, a deer's butt is a few inches from slipping that bullet in behind the last rib. I know this <g>.
I guess none of you have ever screwed up and not hit a deer exactly where you meant to? C'mon... Tell the truth.
Jeff: Most disagree with me on this and that is their right. However with a deer I want and presented with that shot-at close range-I wouldn't try to be cute with placement. I would try to break hips, break him down, then followup as quickly as possible. At anything other than close range I would pass that presentation up.
Not classic or necessarily pretty, but in the majority of times it's over just a fast.
