don't agree with the neck shot stopping them all the time. i shot a 6 point at about ten yards with a 30-30. he dropped on the spot, didn't move for about two minutes, then ran about 60 or 70 yards. left a huge blod trail (never seen anything like it, mudt have bled out completely). i like a nice heart shot, if it doesn't hit the heart, iy most likely takes out the lungs. no air=quick death.
