PF doesn't have rules for called shots. Does your DM have houserules governing them? Knowing that will tell us how to best take advantage of them.

There are these rules (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/other-rules/called-shots). I can't really help with the optimization question, though.

'Improved Called Shot' and 'Greater Called Shot' seem like good picks. Precise Shot helps you throw into melee. Weapon Focus/Specialization help your accuracy and damage

Flying Blade Swashbuckler has a "Targeted Throw" Deed at level 7, letting you nail people in the body part of your choice. You also get bunches of other goodness, such as range and critical boosts, not to mention all the standard Swashbuckler goodness. Want to stack TWF and Rapid Shot and a full BAB to make an absurd number of attacks each round, then add your level to damage with each one? Knock yourself out, kid.

Might be worth taking a level of Far Strike Monk, too; that gets you two vital bonus feats (Quick Draw and Point-Blank, Precise Shot, or Far Shot), and lets you use Flurry of Blows as a replacement for Rapid Shot... though you do lose that with armor, so you'd probably want the feat anyway.

There's the option of dipping Soulknife so that you have infinite daggers to throw.

In a similar vein, the Mobile Knife archetype for Xeph Marksmen is specialized in knife throwing.

If we're looking at DSP product, it would be remiss to avoid talking about the Psychic Armory Soulknife and the bevy of options for throwing builds found in Path of War.
