[QUOTE="catman529, post: 4976630, member: 9284"] Shoulder blade (scapula) will drop the deer, but it will still be alive for a few seconds. Double lung and death run the deer doesn’t suffer, its just running away until it bleeds out. The only way to instantly kill a deer is a head shot between the eye and ear, but that’s a low percentage shot, and I haven’t even tried that. I just go for double lung or heart and try not to mess up shoulder meat. Lungs are the most ethical shot because of the margin for error and how quick it kills the deer. Shoot behind the shoulder and no meat is wasted and the deer will crash within seconds. [/QUOTE]
