RE: Close-Range Neck Shots
Obviously, the popular shot is the vital shot. But let's say all your shots are within 35 yards and you are hunting for meat. With a .270 Win sighted in at 100 yards, I'm pretty sure a middle-of-the-neck shot will down any deer instantly. Basically, if a doe steps out and offers me a broadside shot, I'm going for the neck because it is the least meat damage. On the other hand, if a respectable buck walks out, i'm going vitals for sure. Remember, all this shots or 50 yards or less for sure. Any objections???
