This may be a stupid question, but does anyone have a diagram or photo showing the best shot placement for a neck shot on a deer? I've always done a shoulder shot. I think I know where to shoot on a neck shot but am curious as to see exact placement that others prefer on the neck.

Any pics of the exact location?
2. When I think my gun is under-powered for that particular game which is seldom because a .270 can kill just abut everything in Texas.
Just hit the neck, the bullet will either hit
a. the bone
b. a bunch of blood vessels
c. the bullet shock will knock them out.
The animal won't go far.

Don't graze or hit the edges, hit the center where you know there are a lot of blood vessels and bone.
Here you go, these are my "Go To" spots:

Let me put it this way, when aiming for the neck, are you aiming for the center of the neck (when broadside) or top 1/3 of the neck or something different?
