Default RE: Sad tale of elk hunting woe

ORIGINAL: marcusjb

shot low, but pretty close behind the shoulder. I saw the shot clearly and I was thinking, "should have been a little higher, but that's a dead elk." The arrow penetrated both sides and I could just see the fletching protruding.

The elk isn't going to die,

. I'm assuming I hit too far back from the shoulder to hit the heart,
even though it seemed fairly close to the shoulder.
This is tough you say the shoot was low!
You say you saw it well.
You say it was a dead elk.

Afterthis allseems to be wrong you ask people siting in their own home how you screwed this elk hunt up!
Maybe go back and look for your elk because you were the only one there.
