Black. Shoulders suck, won't penetrate no knuckle If you miss. Guts on the other hand will be a dead deer If the hunter does his/her job right tracking.

Black. Simple answer
but....

thats if he is standing broadside not walking, not alert

If he is alert or staring at me, then just low of black.

Right between the black and blue. I usually look for the crease behind the shoulder and half way up the body. You can miss your spot by a maximum of 3 inches in any direction and you still have a dead deer.

Black. Right on the far right side of that black circle. I try very hard to not hit the heart - what a tasty piece of meat.

Great topic and read by the way

I would try to aim between the black & the pink but would prefer to have the bucks right front leg more forward like when it is stepping forward. If the buck was looking at me & within 20- 30 yards I would aim a little bit lower & assume he would try to jump my shot. I have never hunted on the ground or from a blind so my aim point has always been differnt from a treestand.

Black for me too, gives a little wiggle room either way.
