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.

Matty/Drag, don't think your last two pics on the right are a little back?
On a quartering away shot like that you basically want the arrow to exit right behind the opposites side shoulder blade. So Matty is right on. As for me Matty's are just about right where I would try to put mine. However on his 1st "no shot" I would put my arrow right where Yoda's arrow is going. It is a picture, but it doesn't appear to me that the deer is quartering towards me too severely.

You guys had some beautifal meat hits with lots a red blood at first and no bubbles, then it started to run out and then bad news nothing.

How about making it a little more challenging what was your hair folicals like on your arrow shafts?

Maybe one or two of your shots were through the feed bag. Slim, stink and some remains. No mistake.
