[QUOTE="bowriter, post: 3801032, member: 1518"] How to hit the right spot. Bring the proper sight pin up the back of the front leg. When it is three inches above the belly line, release. That is for broadside shot and should get the top of the heart and both lungs. For all shots on a going away deer, aim for the offside shoulder dead center. On an approaching deer, unless the deer is under 15-yards, just wait. On a close deer at under 15-yards, hold one inch to the side of center of the brisket. (I do not recommend this shot unless you have a lot of experience) One of the deadliest shots in all of bowhunting, the Texas heart shot should not be taken unless you really have a lot of experience. However, a well placed THS will usually drop the deer within 20-yards. You want to hit 1" under the base of the tail and the arrow should bury up to the fletchings. I DO NOT SUGGEST ANYONE TAKE THIS SHOT. [/QUOTE]
