    Not a great fan of neck shots, even less of one for head shots. The target areas small and prone to quick movement but does have a high bone to tissue ratio so a hit is likely to close down the cns.
    I much prefer shooting at the heart lung liver triangle
    For a neck shot presentation needs to be right and aim precise but you do get a bit of leeway with elevation.
    I shot this the other evening and yes it's a neck shot however I might have been aiming somewhere else but if I was aiming for the neck about there or a bit lower would have been my pick.
