[QUOTE=".338LM, post: 250703, member: 12922"] Having done quite a bit of culling over the years, I would favour the head shot over every other shot, all else being equal. That way you can kill much more of a group that with heart / lung shots. On a head shot contrary to popular belief the heart does not shut down right away, if you get to the beast within a few minutes and cut the throat to 'bleed out' the animal will be ok. When culling the buyers are always very keen to have clean meat without waste: the upper neck or head shot gives you that. [/QUOTE]
