Everyone thinks that getting shot in the neck is really bad but it's not that bad at all. A shot to the elbow generally hurts worse for me.
The chances of getting shot there also is not very common, but yeah they do make masks that go down that far and neck protetcters cost around $8.

a one ounce(or whatever it weighs) moving at 300fps generates more pounds of pressure then it just sitting there.
Jump on a scale itll read higher for a split second and then go down to whatever you weigh. |

Ya it doesn't hurt as much as people say it does. It's not like you'll be damaged for ever, it'll just sting for a wile like every where else.

If you are truly concerned about the safety of your neck, you can buy neck guards

If you think getting hit in the neck hurts or are a little unsure about it, then I would get some gloves too. Getting hit in the knuckles isn't that fun.
