[QUOTE="Brad Quarnberg, post: 2933695, member: 107866"] My preference is a behind the shoulder because like 'memtb' I like to bring as much meet home as I can. At times I will shoot for an anchoring shot if the circumstances make that the best shot to take. For example, if there are a bunch of other hunters out in the area I am hunting and I don't want someone shooting the animal after I've hit it, or I don't want it going into a deep box canyon. Any shoulder shot ruins a bunch of meat and usually produces secondary projectiles (bones, bullet fragments or both) that cause additional meat damage that I just don't like. If the circumstances are right, I have and will take a head or neck shot but that's a rare occurrence for me. [/QUOTE]
