anyone ever did an a-hole shot? ( if facing away)

I did unintentionally. I was trying to shoot him through the top of the back into the heart/lungs area on the run up a hill in front of me. There was a little ledge on the hill and just as I pulled the trigger his arse came up even with the rest of him when he got to the ledge. About 2" to the right of the a-hole and it went straight through and the bullet exploded in the chest cavity. All I found were lead shards and pieces of heart and lung. He didn't take another step.

i shot one deer perfectly in the heart...It ran 25 yds and bled atleast a 5 sf area pool.

Shot all my other deer right where the shoulder makes the point and havent chased one since.

GF shot one in the neck with 308 and it dropped immediately. Im a fan of shoulder/neck.
