Yes, in think areas where recovery is difficult, we really prefer the shoulder shot than going for the double lung behind the shoulder.
I'm not good at blood trailing (red green colorblind), so I also prefer a Nosler ballistic tip to expand quickly and enhance rapid incapacitation when all the shot hits is lungs and heart.
Been hunting long enough I've also developed a sense of where deer "want" to go after they get hit. I usually find the deer first by working ahead of the blood trailers just by instinct.
