My 13 y/o posed the question to me the other day. What part of the neck is
best to shoot at if that is the only shot presented?
I gave him my answer. (Wait until you have a better shot). He is a young hunter and the Buck Fever runs high with him. So taking a neck shot is very risky for him and as long as I'm sitting next to him he will wait for that broadside shot, or they will walk.
In thirty years I have never taken a neck shot. So his question got me thinking, what part of the neck is best for a clean humane kill?
The middle of the neck, between the head and body. High up on the neck
near the base of the head?
What's your thoughts and experiences, good and bad. I just want to be able to answer his questions.
Thanks.
