Default How do you miss an elephant????

I was at the range tonight shooting in the snow and I was joined by a gentleman who was having problems getting his bow back. After looking at his equipment and asking him what he was preparing to do, he informed me that he was getting ready to hunt elephants. He had problems finding arrows for his 105 lb. bow. One of the local shops was able to put two arrows together. One inside of the other. He also informed me that he missed one last June at 15 yards. My first question to him I beleive was a valid one. How in the hell did you miss a elephant at 15 yrds. He informed me that you tend to get a little excited at that close of range. I know the next time I miss a deer that close, I won't feel quite as bad. At least it wasn't an elephant.
