I've noticed some folks talk about "heart shots" While I agree that it's a great shot to make, & offers a sure/quick kill - I wonder if they are aware that their wasting a very tasty part of the deer ?
If anyone is interested, I'd be glad to share some of my recipes with you.
Once I prepared some heart for the guys in my old hunt club, they voted UNANIMOUSLEY(?) to assess a fine of $4.00 on anyone with a heart shot.(We had all kinds of fines: $1.00 per shot, after the first one(you should only need ONE,right?) Falling asleep(& getting caught) on watch-$5.00 etc.
All that $ was paid back to he who shoots first deer of the day.(Theres a $31.00 carry over from last November.)

In my line of work these days a heart shot is a big NO-NO !!!!!! On Roos we have to take a neck shot (which sounds hard when you first get told this but becomes second nature ) On a Kangaroo if you get a direct Brain shot the animal does a backward summersalt (very impressive to anyone who has never seen this happen before ) But it breaks the Roos tail,& riuns the meat in the Rump through bruising ! There by down grading the meat from human consumption to Pet meat ! Repeated offenses are punishable by loss of licence ! Camels I have always gone for the neck shot as once startled & running the neck makes a large target (7 has only ever let me down once!

 Makes 2 of us Mate I was brought up on the stuff ! To get the Kids to eat Broccili in this house we threatern them with Roo meat ! They then ask for more Broccili! Roo meat is fit for Dogs & cats only in my opinon! If people saw some of the things we see when we've shot em they would agree with us !
