New grouse hunter here- for those that hunt with handguns- are you aiming for headshots? Sorry if this is a dumb question!!

No we usually aim for the top of the neck.

If you're using a .22, the base of the wing is a good place to aim.

Earhole. Seriously, if you can aim at and hit their head, go for it. I commend you on your wicked handgun skills.

Where the neck meets the head. Hit a little high, head shot, a little low neck shot.
