[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 164702, member: 2736"] [b]Shoulder Shot[/b] If you are shooting a heavy bullet (200grs and up) cliping the back of the shoulder will make it expand early and impart more energy on the ELK. But for lighter bullets I recomend the lung shot for a sure kill. If you want to drop him in his tracts shoot him in the neck. Almost any bullet placed in the lungs is deadly but may take a little while to bring him down . so the terrain has a big part in where you place your shot . Also if your shooting something like a match king I would not recomend the sholder shot. Proper Shot placement depends on many factors ,Choose poorly and the hunt will end up the same way,choose properly and the outcome will be good. The main thing is make your decision and live with it. Just my opinion And I hope all goes well. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
