[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 74873, member: 3756"] Slipshot, I was just going to keep my mouth shut, but will say I agree with you. In Nicaragua Central America where I was born, deer are also very small, we do care much about the meat and we place our shots away from the shoulders for that purpose. I do see that a shoulder shot does have its place but it's not always what I want. My son William, 12 years old at the time, shot a mule deer right on the shoulder with a 243, the entance hole totally destroyed that shoulder and the other shoulder half of it was gone. REALLY if you're going for the meat that's not where I would shoot. I will say that at very long ranges, 700+ yards, a shoulder shot does make sence, specially if it's late in the day. [/QUOTE]
