Neck shot will drop them like a sack of potatoes; you don't have to hit the spine. Broadside, I'll aim at the base of the neck so if I hit a little a further back I'm still making a high shoulder shot. If the deer is facing me, and is more than a 100 yards or so, I'll wait until it lowers its head and again aim for the base. For me, I want to be less than 200 yards when going for the neck. Inside of that, it's almost a guaranteed kill shot from an accuracy standpoint. YMWV.
