[QUOTE="102, post: 984510, member: 1462"] rich, I am "generically" refering to the area about 6 inches above a broadside deers elbow, (Bottom of humerus) forward toward the top of the scapula, as the "shoulder". I have dried humerus and scapula bones from average does that would and have easily stopped arrow penetration. There is a ridge on the scapula, that will easily stop an arrow from penetration to the vitals. I have taken MANY deer with well placed shots through this area, but only because the deer did not react as much as it could have upon arrow release. The picture on Bowsite accurately displays the bones we are talking about. But it takes movement of the leg to interfere with the path of the arrow. THis is very difficult to show to people. I have managed to capture some rough footage but it still does not cover all situations. I definitely aim for the lungs. But I am VERY aware of those arrow blocking bones. 102 [/QUOTE]
