[QUOTE="Muskrat Outdoors, post: 2276105, member: 119188"] I'm not going to argue with your experience, but I have seen neck shots go wrong. I have also seen gut shot elk, and seen lost animals with what should have been heart/lung shots too. I shot a calf elk once that had an arrow sticking out of it's spine. How it could still be moving at all was a mystery. It was last in line of the elk herd and in obvious pain. All I can say is to take the best shot you have, and if it's at all "iffy" don't shoot at all. I'm not a fan of neck shots, but I have taken them without problems also. [/QUOTE]
