I couldn't help myself, please don't take this as a smarty answer.  I am laughing as I post because I was being a smart a**, but laughing at myself because it is the truth.  I just can't keep it together.  I have shot em in the horns.  I have hit trees.  You name it.  I have really been conciously practicing on just aiming this summer.  I believe it has been a productive process.  Good Luck!

Broadside, lower 1/3 of the body. This shot takes out both lungs even if the animal ducks.

Im with Brittman, but pick a spot, be it a hair, a shadow , dark spot whatever.
Aim small, miss small ( most of the time).
