I'm not bashing the OP by any means. I'm just partial to the fact that we have enough "anti-hunter" mentality running a muck nowadays....why post this for all to read? I understand "things happen",,, but like was previously stated.."You have to live with the shot you take". I've lived with that shot once in 45 years, which is why I no longer bow hunt. To wound and lose 2 supposedly huge deer in this amount of time by the OP is totally unacceptable to me. Sorry...
