I disagree, anyone who would miss the head and hit the lower jaw is just as liable to miss the shoulder and gut shoot one. Shooting a jaw off sounds like an amateur who needs more practice and shooting way too big a bullet (or a slug). Thats at least 3 inches below the brain.

Its not a shot I personally like, I want the dense tissue about 6 inches below the ear in the neck. I've been with this group since 1982, never seen a deer wounded or that moved from where he was hit on anything but a shoulder shot, and few of those move far.
