That Youth Express 20ga might be close to perfect with its shorter stock and slightly lighter weight for you,Tman.
The 20 ga Rottweil Brenneke load may be one of the best close range deer stoppers ever made. And the little 870Y makes a great HD weapon, handling like an M-1 carbine but with more moxie. Recoil is not mild, there's no free rides in this area.
I'd use the one I got for the kids on deer, except my old eyes do not work all that well with open sights.
HTH....
