Four out of 36 arrows missed their mark, four animals were not recovered after being shot (intensive searching), and one animal was hit/recovered but finished with a rifle.
Respect!

The sad thing is.....there are people who will take the high and mighty stance that you didn't recover all of your animals. I've been saying that there are 3 types of people. 1) Those who will admit to hitting but not recovering an animal. 2. Those who will NOT admit to it. and 3. Those who haven't had enough shot opportunities.

I want to commend you on one helluva GREAT season. I am in awe.
