[QUOTE="double browtine, post: 4976610, member: 9490"] If it is a doe, neck shot if it's under 100. I normally shoot bucks in the heart lung area. However on neck shots, I aim close to the head. I shot a doe once at 75 yards. She dropped and never moved a muscle. .308 with nosler ballistic tips. Not even a kick or tail flicker. It was 430, so I hunted till dark. Got down and walked up to the doe. She was still alive. Paralyzed and breathing through a huge hole in her neck. My dad had dropped my off at my stand and drove to another area to hunt. I didn't have a knife, so I had to shoot her again. Yes it was illegal, about 5 minutes after shooting hours, but I had to do it. Hearing that gasping and gurgling sound was terrible. I don't shoot those Hornady rounds anymore for that reason. [/QUOTE]
