I've always heard it referred to as a "Texas Heart Shot". I finally had to ask someone what the heck it was after I heard it a time or two as a kid. A few I've run across that make me smile. Balled up. Desert racing term describing a vehicle that is now wadded up. Pilgrim. Someone not familiar with nature about to get eaten, mauled, bitten, etc. Funny stuff.

Tom, it is indeed Thursday even though my post is a Friday Sky watch. Most often the Sky watchs posts are entered in today mainly for those oversea bloggers where they are already a day ahead! You are not going crazy.. or shall I say any crazier than you are already! LOL By the way... it would be nice to see that photo that you had talked about on my blog if you still had it! Sounds pretty sweet! ~Michele J~ Entertaining post… made me smile.

It made me laugh when I first saw the reference and the accompanying pictures. I've never heard of the Texas Bullseye, but my Dad, who is the hunter I know best, grew up in Michigan. He may not have known about that phrase. I like the taco’d reference too. It made me laugh when I first saw the reference and the accompanying pictures.

Mmmmm....backstraps. I am familiar with the Texas heart shot which is what you call the Texas bullseye. I also know the Archery term all too well and I agree with your definition of trophy. Great post. Backstrap I think is an international word that means the same thing. Mmmmm….backstraps.
