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.
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

In November U.S. manufacturing contracted for the the ninth consecutive month. Layoffs across the economy are higher than anytime since the pandemic in 2020 and I just read that the Midwest farmers will be receiving a 12B bailout due to 50 year trade relationships being destroyed. I have to admit that I was a sceptic and didn't believe in the effectiveness in tariffs but I'm a believer now.

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.
