Default RE: first bowkill how far did you have to track your kill

my first and only bow kill was with my high country at 17 yards, it was a 120 lb. sow, she was facing away from me , i shot through the ham out the lung, she ran about 60 yards....didnt know at the time it was a risky shot, thought that was why i practiced from all angles, wont be taking a risky shot ever again, i thank God we found her, she took the arrow with her, i saw no blood, then a drop and another and another, then a pile of it, then more spots then an arrow, it was sticking out of her
lost a huge hog later, took the shot , about 22 yards, it jumped, legged it, but blood was everywhere, tracked it for about 400 yards and lost it in the cypress head, should of been a double lunger....i'm sure he died, i just could never find him, really sucked....
