Bear Anatomy and Shot Placement Guide

Knowing where the bears organs is an important part of bear hunting. The best shot with a bow and arrow is when the bear is quartering away with it's front shoulder moving forwards so you can sneak an arrow into the kill zone with out any bone obstruction. I like to imagine a straight line going through the animal that way you can visualize where the projectile will cross. Please view the PDF file displaying the vital organs and kill zone of a bear.
