I am aiming at P. This is my 5th year hunting and I still shake a little so that gives me so room for error.

p should be a good double lung shot. I try to visualize where the bullet will come out, then figure the middle point. between n v and w should be a center heart shot, but I like to eat the heart

O&P never a neckshot fan. I'm fat and hate seeing deer unable to feed. For all the ballistic gack out there any decent bullet@2500 fps will kill them. Heck Out back throws .223 bullets and they die.

between N and O is the best shot IMO you have to visualize where the bullet will come out always shoot at the opposite side of the deer.

I am more of an N try to break both shoulders.

Shoot them behind the shoulder. Highest percentage shot

Yep....put one through the pump house and they ain't going very far. Of course, it's kinda hard to make deer heart fajitas when the heart explodes into jelly....

When y'all are talking bout high shoulder give me the letter on the deer where y'all are talking about.

Neck shots are a last resort in my playbook if that is the only shot I am given. I've seen Billy Bob shoot the windpipe out of several and they can run a LONG way breathing through a hole in their neck.

I think of high shoulder as E or F.

N all day. That's the "go get the 4 wheeler shot", not the "let's go track it" shot.

You just throw them???? I was told you were the guy that held the cartridge in his teeth, and popped the primer with you tongue and that you never ever missed shooting this way. Heck, I've heard rumors that you are more deadly than a 6.5 CREED.

I just prefer a good judy chop to the neck if I can get one in range.
