    Half the Bucks get shot too early as three year olds before they get a chance to grow their splits out. Just takes an onto it bastard to shoot the actual rubbish and leave the good potential. Then ya get nice heads like this coming through

    Its depending on the distance of the shot. At those long distances im aiming high, in the middle of shoulder/base of neck. For closer shots say sub 400 I aim middle of shoulder/base of neck. Because the bullet arc is not so severe at close distance.Or head/neck to save a bit of mess. This is for a broadside facing deer. But as the angle of the animal changes so should your point of aim. Think about where the bullet will exit ,not so much where it enters.
    Hit them where it hurts.
    Cheers. Cam
