Both shot placement methods are considered acceptable.
Which one do you prefer, if at all?
BB416 and Huntinstuff, please do not think I am stealing an argument from you guys. You two brought up a very good question I thought should be shared with the rest of the forum.

I would never argue with Randy ...
All depends
Sometimes I want to anchor an animal and other times a lung shot is perfectly fine.For bears or dangerous game I try for shoulder...
High shoulder shots like TJ recommends do offer the best result for a killing shot as you can miss quite a bit in either direction and skill have a good result..
All depends on the hunter and situation and if the animal dies quickly then thats a perfect shot in my mind
