This leads me to another question re headshots from the front.

Is the head of a deer similar in structure to a cow, so that you can use the same rule of thumb for a headshot?

( ie draw an imaginary line on the forehead from opposite eye to opposite ear to form an x.)

My father was a vet and would advise farmers to put down cattle (if needed) using a 22lr and the x aimpoint, but very close range and aiming square onto the head
