It happens to us all! I put a bad hit on a VERY ice buck a week and a half ago, must have glanced a twig, only got a couple inches of penetration on a 17 yd quartering away shot. Spent 3 days searching and nothing. With the poor penetration I'm fairly certain he will survive unless the shotgunners get him this weekend.It sucks but its a fact of life for bowhunters,do it long enough you will lose a deer or two. <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

If I ain't huntin',I'm trappin',If I ain't trappin',I'm fishin'
If I ain't fishin',I'm wishin'!
