Default North American Fish & Game TV Show

I was just wondering if anyone caught the North American Fish & Game show yesterday on the Outdoor Channel? I don' t usually watch the Outdoor Channel all that much but did catch the show. The show was filmed in Kansas and they were bowhunting whitetail. Anyhow, the guy took a shot that in my opinion was a little risky. The hunter was on the ground and the deer was almost totally facing him, but was hard quartering to. The guy shot an hit what appeared to me either a single lung, single lung - liver, or liver. I could not tell because I did not see the shot in slow mo, and they did not show the entrance/exit holes after they recovered the deer. Which brings me to another point. Don' t you wish that they would show the tracking job in a little more detail and where the deer is actualy hit. It would be so much more educating. And beginners would not have a false sense of the hunt. But anyway, by what they did show of the tracking, I would have to assume that the deer was not hit in both lungs, but was hit in one, and probably a liver also. But in my opinion, the deer would have walked if I was faced with the same shot. BTW, they mentioned that the deer was 35 yards. And by the posture of the deer, it was alarmed and looking right at the hunter.

If you saw the show what are your opinions?
