Default RE: Elk: neck shot?

Once at a deer a very long time ago - LOTS OF FEVER GOIN ON - The buck was running I was running. REALLY STUPID ON MY PART. Missed the entire western half of the universe.

Tried a head shot once also - ANOTHER REALLY STUPID ON MY PART THING. Now 20+years later I only shoot at the vital area and only if I am sure and only if I am standing or kneeling.

The game I've managed to take were all within 150 yards, not aware of my presence and went down without a fuss.

EDIT POINT: I took a shot once that gave me the runs
