Rusty Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Supernova, I stole your picture, hope you don't mind. This picture is a great comparison of a deer with its leg forward and one with it back. When the leg is back the humerus (marked in black) is horizontal, which brings the shoulder blade down, covering the front of the vitals. When the leg is forward, the humerus rotates vertical, pushing the scapula up and away from the vitals. This gives a much larger unobstructed view of the vitals. not on the rug, birdshotnj and Joeybeets 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixbaghunter Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I wouldn't take that shot I would wait for the deer to be broadside or quartering away. Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyJaysTaxidermy Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I would try and allow that deer to turn more before taking a shot..But if I must pick a spot it would be here (and that is the absolute harshest angle I would ever consider shooting at quartering towards me)http://www.jerseyjaystaxidermy.com hammer4reel 1 Jersey Jay's Taxidermy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just using the comparison of leg position and the location of the leg and shoulder bones. I only shoot Broadside to quartering away too. hammer4reel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyJaysTaxidermy Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 With my rage I would probably pull another inch or 2 back from my original location because I wouldn't wanna end up with a shoulder shot and no penetration.. I rather let my rage do what it does best to the lungs and liver http://www.jerseyjaystaxidermy.com Jersey Jay's Taxidermy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbryant Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 These are two deer that I shot this week. Both a slight quarter to shot. I have never taken any quartering to shots but both of these hit heart and the farthest made it about 65 yards. If the pics are too much mods you can erase them.
