Default RE: Neck Shots on Deer Always Drop Them Cold?

Halcon - good point about the peoples shooting. Personally I enjoy shooting so I spend a good bit of time at the range. A guy on our lease has me or my father sight in his rifle every year(basically because he doesn't shoot well enough to do it). The fact that he respects our shooting enough to ask us to do it is great, but there is a chance that rifle is not going to shoot to the same point of impact for him as it does for me. Besides if you don't trust your shooting enough to sight your own rifle in not sure how you would pull the trigger on a deer. Over the years I've had to trail a few deer for him, usually gut shot. Our theory is he jerks the trigger or flinches and pulls everything to the right. Deer facing left = gut shot; facing right - through front shoulders or miss. Long story short - everyone should know there gun and be able to shoot it.
