RE: Since when did shooting a deer in the neck become an acceptable shot?
I bet the taxidermist just love the neck shot guys. I can't see any reason to take a chance on a neck shot unless you can hit a moving broomhandle 8 out of 10 shots. I am guilty of having taken more then one risky shot(i.e steep angles and quartering on.) but when the blood trail goes dry you know who to blame. It's not very often you recover a animal thats been hit with a marginal shot at best. It would be hard for me to take finding the buck of my dreams a year after I took a bad shot on him.I would rather see him on someone elses wall.
