[QUOTE="brentc, post: 566376, member: 16938"] I often times base my aiming point to hit the opposite shoulder. If that means that the facing shoulder is forward it's a behind the shoulder shot on the facing side, and the bullet travels through vitals to hit the opposite shoulder. This, along with a quartering away shot is my favorite position for a shot because it fully exposes the vitals and bone structure on the opposite shoulder. It also provides an effective bullet path as the bullet travels through the animal. If the facing shoulder is straight down, it usually means the opposite shoulder is straight down and in this case I will put a bullet straight through the point of the facing shoulder. If the facing shoulder is back, I will aim slightly forward of the shoulder point to angle the shot towards the opposite shoulder. The opposite shoulder is a technique that has always worked for me.
