As long as you asprirated and no blood came out you should be OK.

u should put ur thumb on ur hip point and spread ur hand out from there and shoot where ur pinky lands, u went a little low if u ask me but as long as it isnt prop i know it would sit well with me or maybe winny or susp cuz those would have me limping for a week especially that low

go to this link and it has pictures of exactly where to stick.

You need to be 3/4ths of the way up the thigh and slightly outer/upper area. The pics on this site will explain it best. FYI, stick after a shower and go in slow. Those were 2 tidbits of info that I wish I would of had before my first stick last week. I blasted it into my thigh cold so no wonder I walked funny for a week.

Yikes, I've been going way too low. Never seemed to have a problem yet.

You have a lot of room to work with in your outer thigh. I go low sometimes and never had a problem with it. Just try to stay at least 8 inches above the knee (also depends on how tall you are; I'm 6 foot).

Why is that?

Good point, how tall you are makes a difference. I am 5'9.75" EXACTLY and I have short thick thighs (some say that describes my head as well but I digress) so I need to be further up there to really get to the meat of my leg.

I'm not doubting him, but as long as you're hitting muscle I don't see what the difference would be. I'm curious.

Why is that?

Because your nerves start to branch out and slip to the other side of your femur the closer you get to your knee.

Haha...I'm sure you can probably get away with it a lot of the time, but I wouldn't chance it; that's just me though.

Wayne's right! If you wack that nerve, it'll hurt like hell.

Cool, thanks bro. K for you.
