Yo, its funny you say that because I drove a arro rocket 2.5 cut mechanical head through a shoulder at close range. It was a bad shot and bamb giant wack sounded like a gun shot and I thought Oh no shoulder. I figured I must have broke form and peeked. The deer was eating on the bait and turned and fell down dead and when I got right out of the tree I was dum founded at the site . It was amasing,it was only a small doe about 70 pounds but I doubt seriously I could do that on a buck? He'd be lost from a bad shot.
We all get differant shots that are good and bad because archery is a game of inchs.

I know you don't aim for that spot but it does happen just think about all the trails the guys are on in the fall. We hear about them don't we.:D

Bull I blew through the knuckle of the shoulder (both shoulders) with my 63# mathews.

As for the gbroup at 30yards them arrows should be touching keep practicing. Thats what my 80yard group use to look like.

Stay away from the shoulder shots. Alot can go wrong. 75lbs will not blow through a mature bucks shoulder all the time. It's not worth the chance center mass is way to go.

Not to start anything Utlra mag.. but I begged to differ.. Many of my kills last year were straight thru the shoulders, All I'm saying is I don't worry about it..

The key is always be confident in your shooting!! Pick a hair and let fly!!

I shot 63 pounds and that arrow didn't go through the shoulder on the shot I talked about, but the head went through after all the blades broke off about 1 inch and killed the deer plus I thought it might have got shocked maybe also.

Your not really telling us you actually shoot for that shot are you? Say it aint so?:D
