"The best scenario for good shot placement of the bullet is when the animal is positioned broadside or slightly quartering away and the bullet placed into the high shoulder area (#3) hitting the shoulder blade (scapula) and part of the spine (see skeletal picture). Or placing bullet right on the middle of shoulder (#2) attempting to break BOTH shoulders and lungs, or just behind the shoulder into the heart/lung area (#1)."
I can't say that I agree with it but that's what's written. To me the ideal shot would be double lung directly above #1 and in line with #2. To each their own.
You don't want to see the suggested shot placement on a moose that I found on another site.
