[QUOTE="MontanaJack, post: 1983764, member: 25389"] I’ve never mounted a game head, so I usually finish them with a head shot. That said, I haven’t needed a finishing shot for over 30 years. About that time, I quit the behind the shoulder shot that I learned as a youngster. Started using the high shoulder shot. Now, animals drop in their tracks. In my prime, I was a jungle hunter. Lost several elk in heavy downfall and brush with the behind the shoulder shot. They always ran unless I hit the heart. Line the vertical crosshair with the front legs, and the horizontal crosshair 6” to 8” below the top of the back. Stops them in their tracks and they’re dead by the time I get to them. Best of all, no stinky green stuff when you gut them out. If their quarter turn facing the shooter, that behind the shoulder shot can get messy. High shoulder shot doesn’t ruin a mount either.
