Can't imagine why a PH would discourage it.

Marrakai,
I can.

For experienced hunters that shot is a beauty for sure and as you say will put a bull down on the spot.
Some hunting clients are a different story though.
Many will shoot high both with open sights and with scoped rifles and when this happens that bull gets it in the nose or jaw with that particular shot, then the sh#t hits the fan.

For those who can put the bullet where it is supposed to go I agree that it is the best killing front on shot and indeed way better than heart, or heart upper blood vessels.
