About LinkBacksIt's always a bit risky with neck shots 'cos you have to get it right. But from my experience the atlas joint is the spot. That's the last vertabre of the neck that the head hangs off. You either hit it for an instant kill, or miss all together. Mostly, everywhere else on the neck the humane kill margin begins to decrease.
The worst thing that you can do is misplace your shot and leave a deer with a ruined jaw, or a bloody great flesh wound on its neck somewhere.
