Put a limbsaver on it as well.

DRT?
So you are saying you have to go high shoulder to drop them on the spot?
We have been thinking about the high shoulder shot to sit them down. The one time I have used it I was abit to far back and missed the spine but broke the off shoulder. It wasnt boom thump but the animal tried to step and went straightdown. It is a much smaller target than the chest tho. I actually dont mind losing deer but I need to know they will die humanely.
