[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1517511, member: 33159"] TexSavage is spot on where to place the shot. This hits the Thoracic Autonomic Nerve Complex and this makes them look like they've been hit by lightning. It's not a meat savers shot and you will lose some of the front quarter meat (use an all copper bullet to reduce the meat loss). This is where the Europeans shoot all of their game, unlike what I was taught. The beauty of this shot is you have a fair amount of fudge factor. A little left or right or higher or lower, it doesn't matter. All are lethal. It either destroys the central nervous system or causes extreme blood loss or both. Very rapid and ethical kill. I changed to this shot position to mainly drop antelope in their tracks so I wouldn't get all that adrenaline in the meat if they ran. Everything has either been dead in its tracks or dropped within a step or two. Nothing like watching a bull elk look like someone pulled the rug out from underneath him. [/QUOTE]
