Just playin devils advocate....
Personally, I think it's our duty to retain as much meat as possible...heck, I think it's even mentioned in the reg's.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who chooses to part the ribs for meat retention.

Oh...I never once mentioned that you shouldn't shoot an animal in the shoulder. I'm just stating that I don't agree with it and I gave my reasons why. Nothing more,nothing less.
That seems to get some guys ruffled up...and then semantics further compound the issue....ie: using the word ''anti''. OOPs.
