Shot Placement Challenge

yoda4x4 · Mar 26, 2007

I thought it would be a fun idea to see everyone's idea of the perfect shot placement on deer. So thanks to RD-HC, I've copied 7 different poses and pasted them below to compare with everyone. Copy the pic and place a dot on each picture showing the spot you'd be aiming for.

What weapon(s)?
Maybe put a B on there for bow and a G for gun?

ok Dave you first,

Your choice. If you'd like to do both, maybe put 2 dots in different colors and specify which color is for which weapon.

My version.
Yellow circle is gun or bow.
Red circle is gun only, no bow shot for me.

Actually that lower right one could go back a smidge...another two inches or so.

ok Dave you first,

Here's mine:

Red is gun, black is bow.

Way to go Lou![up]

I dont use a gun, so that didnt even cross my mind. Technically I'd pass that buck, and I'd make sure none of them are button bucks. Otherwise the arrow is going where that red dot is.

Good thread.

Here is my choice for the shots. I chose to use only one weapon. My Winchester X-150 with 100gr of 777 and a 240gr bullet. [up]
